4.0l Engine block coolant draing plug- how to remove?

Square hole. 1/4" is too small, 3/8" seems to be too big. What tool do I need to remove this plug? Is it 5/16", or metric?

Also, can the temperature sensor be removed instead to drain the coolant from the block? That looks easier.

Thanks

You use the squaredrive end of your ratchet or breaker bar. 3/8th should fit but it's likely pretty rusty.
