Im sure you could heat the plug tap it gently with a small ballpeen spray it with wd40 or (my preference) PB let it cool, then try TIGHTENING IT FIRST then work it back and forth keep it soaking in PB and eventually it will come out. You want to be very carful to work it otherwise you will pull the threads out of the Aluminum. Hope that help ya sum! And when you install the new SS plug coat it with plumbers SS putty.
