Yep, the drain plug is designed to seal with a crush washer between the flange of the bolt head and the engine casting. What she's got is probably a tapered pipe thread plug, that'll never seal. Hopefully whoever put that in didn't damage the threads, the oil drain plug is a non-tapered metric thread and all pipe plugs are tapered inch-based threads.
