looks like I'll be making a stop there soon. I don't want any drops in oil pressure, that's not good.

I don't think so. Is the drain valve apart of the oil plug-temperature sensor??? A drain plug would help b/c then I don't have to monkey off the wires everytime and reconnect.

nevermind it probably the temperature sensor. although they do make drain valves but i would not recommend that you would lose the temperature sensor then.
