Hello! did you purchase , and install?? I have wanted to do the same on my twin Yanmar 315's aboard my 31TE. I don't see how I can realistically reach the oil pan drains. Hopefully you have batter access than I do.

Mark, I did not install it yet, I was in a time crunch to change the oil and filters etc, so I didn't have the time to address it, I did find access to the plug, laying on my stomach and hanging over the side I think I can access it, I'm changing the oil again mid season in 2025, and will address it at that time.
