Thanks for the replies.
I have not taken the plug out yet - when it started to behave strangely I tried to tighten it again - the general idea being to keep the car on the road, especially at this time of year.
Had a look at a spare box - there are only about 4 threads - the casting is thin - and yes, the gears aren't far above.
That 1/2" BSP sounds a possibility - there is no 22 metric fine, apparently, which might have been another option (if it had existed!).
