If the sump plug is missing then the next question is was it loose or is the sump thread poor or damaged?
Look for the sump plug - it must be somewhere close. Once you have it you can examine it and then refit. See if it tightens to the correct torque figure (Haynes manual, WIKI, google, etc).
If it is the sump casing thread that is worn/damaged then I have seen call out services that fit helicoils and new sump plugs, also seen Helicoil kits advertised on EBAY (no idea of what they are like), also talk to your local garage. I have even read of sparkplugs being used as a temporary bodge but check to see exactly why the sump plug fell out if indeed that is the cause.
