2012 Genesis 5.0 filter case drain plug seized

The 6mm allen drain plug on the bottom of the filter casing (not the oil pan plug) is seized up and deformed as Ive tried to loosen it to no success. I'm assuming I can leave it in and just add less oil on refill?

I always thought the 6mm Allen drain plug was to facilitate pre-draining of your oil filter. So that way there is less chance of making a mess when unscrewing the oil filter housing. Matter of fact I’ve stopped taking off the 6mm Allen drain plug. Use your dip stick markings as to how much oil to refill crankcase.
