Would making my own drain plug heater be an option? Find a 100-150W heating element (anything special about it if it's going to be sitting in oil?), find a spare drain plug, drill a hole in it, put the heating element through the hole and weld it nice and snug. Anything else?

That's my plan: Add a 100-150W oil heater the 550W coolant heater I recently installed.
