It's a plug not a cap.
A flat bar or the Seagull spanner is usually all that's needed to undo it ( normal RH thread) . Warming the gearcase with hair dryer or hot air gun might help if its tight.

Might as well tip out all the old "oil" Leave it in the sun to drain into a shallow container

Your sjm 2060b6 uses SAE 140 oil. Refill until visible but somewhat below the hole. Stand upright and allow surplus to drain. Refit plug

If the gunge that comes out is really bad. Fill the box with some cheap car engine oil and give it a short run in the tank. Drain and refill with 140 oil
