oil pan drain plug stripped!!!

I guess whoever had the car before me stripped out the plug then went to an oversized plug. It is now stripped and I have a temporary rubber butterfly plug in there. What is the easiest way to fix this without raising the engine and pulling the pan??? I really want to get out of this with a quick fix but I dont want to worry about it either. HELP!!!!

i wouldnt count on welding on an oil pan thats on a car, would be pretty much impossible to get it clean enough to weld on and have it do any good. i'd get a a bit tap that will cut new threads in whats already there and then find a nice new bolt or something to serve as your new plug.
