Nitti,
I suppose if you were committed to changing over to the plunger type (referring to valve stopper not the rear suspension) or some other type such as SRM, you could sacrifice the existing base piece. However, I am very hesitant to recommend this as it involves destroying an original part that someone else might want. But before going that route, I would exhaust the "well adapted spanner" (or ring, or socket) approach. I am going to throw a few ideas out here, but please consider them with respect to your own skills and needs. Each of these assume that the "well adapted..." did not work by itself. I think these are in order of desperation, least desperate first:
1. Without the spring, ball and fiber washer, reintall the cap piece as tight as possible while holding the base with ring, spanner or adjustable spanner. Use blue (medium hold) Loctite. Do not let the base get tighter. Now, work the base wrench as hard as possible while adding to removal torque with the wrench or socket on the cap. This is the "double nutting" technique.
2. As above, but see if going a little tighter is possible, thereby breaking the bond between base and crankcase. This will have really tightend the cap so the double nut would be more effective during removal.
3. The previously mentioned chisel (chisel marks can be repaired with welding and/or filing if really necessary).
4. (This one is outside of my personal experience, so consider with caution.) As in #1, above, but with red (permanent) Loctite. If it works, and once out of the crankcase, torch the pair to char the Loctite, which should destroy its holding power. (My concern here is that the cap will round over before the base comes out, increasing your trouble.)
5. (Here's another one I haven't done.) Tack weld the cap to the base so you can still get wrenches on both.
6. As you mentioned, but with nuclear explosives.
As for sacrificing the base, that might involve much more agressive chiseling or using an "easy out" (left handed corkscrew thingie) of the correct size.
