If you must resort to the oil filter wrench, do me a favor and wrap duct tape all around that knob, over and over again. Then try the strap wrench on there. Then if that doesn't work, then maybe the oil filter wrench. The idea behind the tape is to wrap enough around to get a better surface to grip, while protecting the stock knob should you choose to use a filter wrench or even pliers...
