I don't have the 616 FSM, but the 617.95 FSM absolutely specifies that the crankcase plug should be removed. Doing so is incredibly beneficial.

Doesn't it seem a bit strange that MB install a drain plug and then recommend that it not be used?
It is truly amazing how much crap comes out of that drain. Highly recommended.
