Anybody know the correct torque for a Sprinter 3.0L Diesel oil drain plug?

Nope, doesn't seem to be listed at all. On the interweb I see numbers from 22 to 65 lb-ft. No confidence in any of them, thanx.

You might give the oil drain plug torque chart at this link a look-see. No "Sprinter" listed, of course, but you might recognize the Dodge model yours is based on.
