Gearbox drain and fillter plugs question

Subject: Gearbox drain and fillter plugs question

Hi All
So this weekend I drained the gearbox and diff oils. I struggled my butt loose to get the gearbox drain plug off but eventually managed using a pipe wrench which could grip the square plug nicely.
But before this I used a number 15 spanner which I eventually managed to bend to be more of a 16mm and also a adjustable wrench. this caused the bolt to be damaged on the square edges. can we still get these bolts somewhere or must I next time get someone to build up the edges with a tig weld and then just polish it square again.
