I regularly use dowty seals for sump plugs, oil line fittings etc, I keep a wide range of them on the shelf "just in case". They are almost always NBR rubber so fine with all sorts of lubricating oils at sensible temperatures (not recommended for brake fluid nor really coolant, though you'll get away with NBR for coolant).
They ought to have used a thread insert (helicoil etc) for a std plug rather than increase the size. The most likely problem will be that it hasn't been tapped square, they'll have probably done it free-hand so up to the skill of the operator. Perhaps you can judge whether it is seating square or if the plug is at an angle to the seal face.
One way to do a temporary fix is to back out the plug a bit, wind PTFE tape round the exposed part, and carefully retighten. Best to wind the tape round so it winds on as you tighten it (rather than unwinds, if you get my drift). Obviously this is only suitable if the threads are strong enough to stay put until the next oil change, only you can judge that.
