Oil Drain Plug Size of 5.0 Volvo

[AZSenza]

Does anyone know the size of the oil drain plug on an 07 Volvo penta 5.0?
I want to make SURE i order the right kit for a perm install drain hose. My last boat (260 Merc) I used a Fram Quick drain coupling but it looks like they stopped making them.

You can't install one on those engines. The dipstick tube is hooked to a fitting in the bottom of the pan. You just hook up a pump to the dipstick tube to drain the oil.

Don, my '05 5.0FL dipstick ends on a brass tee fitting. The top oth the tee has a large (1"?) plug screwed into it. Could a quick drain hose fit into that?

Yes, that is a hose bib thread like a standard garden hose. That is what it's for.
