Oil pan bolt torque spec is 3.6 ft-lb. I haven't seen one for the drain
plug.

I haven't seen a torque value for the oil pan bolts/cap screws. There are
standards for torque which can be used when one doesn't have an OEM value.
Unfortunately, I cannot find my list right now, but there are a couple of
active or former mechanics on the List. Maybe someone has and will publish
the generic torque standards to which I referred.
