As most have stated no magic formula here.
I've always had success with vice grips on the tube while i used channel lock pliers on the cap end. If seriously in trouble then remove tube and go to the bench vice. Lastly apply some heat if clamping in the vice and utilizing channel locks doesn't do the job. You likely inherited this one however note to self, never tighten that drain cap too much as it can be a PITA to separate at times.
