What Aaron suggests, is what I had to do to replace my plug.
I also found that even after taping it with plumbers tape when threading the new one back into the hole, it still leaked. To fix that, I selected my most suitable hammer (normally the biggest) and peened the face.
It don't leak no more.

I have given up using tape and use Loctite Master Pipe Sealant on everything now, even garden taps, and no more leaks on anything

Most probably is BS Conduit.
Replace all of them, especially if it is out of the car,
