For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.you are quite right to be concerned about it breaking off. Due to the constuction of plugs there is a weak point at the top of the thread and it does happen. No lubricant will get past the seal so dont bother. We have been advised that a hot engine and a blast of a freezing agent like plumbers use on the plug concerned might just do it, good luck
