What's Worse
Putting the fill cover plug back in a Dana 30..
What's Worse:
A plug that's tightened beyond the recommended 20-25ft-lbs
or
A plug that's not sitting flush with the cover but is torqued correctly.

Probably a plug that's not sitting flush. That would tell me the threads are most likely cross threaded now and would be an even bigger ***** to repair.

Thanks for the answers guys, I got a replacement plug that fits from the hardware store this morning because the old one had loctite that wasn't gonna come off. I'll have to head back outside and torque it to spec.
Thanks so much
