Judging from the pics, it looks a little pink which means it has lost some of it's zinc content and may be brittle. If it breaks off in the block, just get an ez-out to remove the remaining threads. Try to keep that oil passage as clean as possible!
Also, do yourself a favor and replace that piece of pipe even if it comes out in one piece.

Will do and thank you!
