Does an alternative exist for the 17 mm drain and fill plugs in the transmission? That female 17 mm socket is a pain. Something with a male hex (for a wrench or socket) would be much better.

The 17 mm Allen is a pain? I just use an Allen socket on a ratchet. Never had a problem. I'm not sure that you will find a metric pipe plug, and if you did I'd be afraid of some road debris breaking off the head of that plug and dumping transmission fluid all over the highway.
