Magnetic Drain Plug Torx setting 700

I have a 1990 740 with about 297k miles, so I thought it would be good to use a magnetic drain plug (iPd) to catch extra debris.

However, I hear if you over tighten it, you can strip the oil pan because the magnetic plug is slight shorter. Does anyone know the Torx setting in oreder to have it tight, but not over tight.

Thanks in Advance
