If it were me (and we're glad it's not) I'd drop an identical spare plug in some motor oil and let it sit for a few weeks and see if it changes at all.
If it doesn't, you're good to go.

That's a good idea, thanks.
I'm still hoping it comes out in an oil change. Picture 4 gallons of scalding hot oil pouring out, the consistency of water at that temp. It has to come out.
Right?
