But there are tools you may not have used yet that could get it off. I've seen those sockets with the spring loaded cylinders in them that supposedly grip rounded nuts. There's also impact wrenches than could free it up.
I've even heard that you can weld a wrench to the plug...but i've never had to do it. Your Indy should be able to figure something out, including running a tap back through the filler hole. Afterwards, you might want to consider installing a Fumoto oil drain valve.
