So, IPD says
We highly recommend only replacing this tube when you have the oil pan off of the engine.
It is usually not possible to extract the old tube because they get very brittle and will fall apart if disturbed.
====================================
So, I chewed it up on top end...screwed again....and strongly suspect it can't be removed on top side when it becomes hard.
So, any tricks to avoid removing oil pan? Like fishing out fragments from oil drain hole when done?
