Stripped oil drain plug . . . 200

Today, as I was changing my oil, I managed to strip the treads out of the drain. In thirty-five years of changing oil, this is a first for me.

How can I fix that, short of a new oil pan? Can I up-size the plug and cut new threads? What size should I go for? Where can I get a larger plug? Or are there better alternatives?

Thanks for your usual good help.

Allen
