Question '83 300SD Diff filler plug seized

So I'm putting on new flexx boots on my '83 300SD, and for the life of me, I cannot get that !@$% filler plug off the differential without the car coming off the jack stands, so I decided to just get the outer end of the axle off and get the boots in that way using a rather large funnel and some grease. However, since the axles cannot come off at this moment, I cannot drain all the oil that's inside completely; is it going to harm things if I mix the Moly grease I got with the oil that stays in the cans? Or what could be a method to drain the cans more effectively?
A million thanks for any help
