I have Saf-Air quick drains on both planes. WAY less expensive than Aeroquip and they work great. Used them both today. Mine are blue. I didn't recognize yours until I saw the pic with the label.

I have a Saf-air on the RV. Works great. I found some clear tubing that fits right over the nipple on the bottom of the drain so I can route the used oil right into a container. No muss, no fuss.

I have another one ready to go on my current project, but I'm waiting until the exhaust is installed so I can pick the best location for the drain.
 
I would describe these as easy drains because they really do not drain oil quickly through the outlet.
 
If the oil is warm it flows out just fine. Not removing the bottom cowl is a time saver.
