One problem

The oil pan bolt on my Eclipse is stripped. The threads internally are stripped not the head of the bolt. I was not able to get it off no matter what I tried and I used a bunch of techniques. Such as vice grip, pipe wrench, screwdrivers you name it I tried it. All I want to know is:

Is it possible to drill a hole through the oil pan bolt? If yes I assume that there would be no sparks or risk of fire, just metal shavings.
IF NOT
Could I get the Oil out another way like, sticking a tube down the oil dipstick and using suction to get it out?
IF NOT That
I am open to any suggestion but I would just like to know about the drilling.

if the threads internally are stripped then the plug will fall out. explain why you think the threads are stripped? does the plug turn?

The only reason i could see you might drill it out would be if you broke the head off the bolt...other than that, drilling is a no-no.
