Be a man and hold it with hands
Or do what I do and use an airgun to shock the bolt loose...

Are you draining the engine?
If you do, i would replace it with fresh, pointless skimping on £15+ quid for new oil only to find you feck your engine.
If you are not draining the oil, and it looks good and has had little use i would re-use it.

If you're on the side stand you shouldn't loose much oil when you take the genny cover off, just a couple of drops really.
I've made a tool to hold it in place too, happy to lend it out if you're close enough to pick up?!

(I can't see the ebay link, so if it's cheap enough, that's probably the way to go.)

I got one of those (same as on the ebay link) and it worked a treat. cheap enough to not bother making your own IMHO
