This hose kit is already on the pan but will not fit through the transom…I need an adapter from my oil extraction pump’s 3/4” garden hose female attachment to the end of this hose kit…hose kit has the plug termination. So I need a brass adapter from 3/4” ght to */* npt (?)…anybody know?

Do you think that any fitting that would replace that plug would be too small/restrictive for an electric pump to work…is a guy better off to cut off the end assembly and just screw clamp a barbed fitting on the hose?

Pretty sure they are 1/4" NPT. Mine is 225 miles away.
Ran across THESE on Ebay, then you could run an NPT close nipple between the drain hose and the linked adapter or even a short hose with 1/4" male NPT on each end.
At any rate no matter how you rig anything up, I myself would never cut the crimped connector/plug setup off the Mercruiser hose.
I'd "hack" a rigged setup somehow else.
I use a vacuum oil extractor on the same hose and I use an NPT to pushlock connector to attach to my extractors 10mm tube and it draws fine.

I would just shove a 2' section of more flexible vinyl tubing through the drain plug that you can temporarily press onto the end of the drain hose each time you change the oil.
