What type of oil filter wrench/adapter are you using?
For the impact tool, make sure to put a maximum of 1 adapter that is impact grade. Each adapter reduces the impact strength by a quarter to a half.
Give it a full 30s of impact.
As long as there is good clearance and no chance of slipping, just use a quality wrench, and a BFH. Use the hammer to hit the end of the wrench. A few good hits with a 8lb hammer should do it. I have never really needed my 16 lb hammer.
If you can use your feet to turn the wrench, try it. Your leg can probably put down several times the force of your hand.
Since you are not dealing with a seriously rusted bolt, a long extension wrench got to work. If it does not, put a pipe on the wrench. If it still does not, stick another extension wrench to the other end of the pipe.
I once had to do a double wrench trick to break a super tough bolt in an impossible place. At least you should have plenty of space to do whatever you like.
If you are using the typical Toyota oil filter wrench, at certain point, you will start to worry about the wrench breaking at the 3/8 hole. Most of those fit also a 21 or 22 mm socket. Do not apply more than 100ft/lb to the 3/8 hole use a socket instead.
Just try a full 30s impact first.
If it does not work, the hammer way is probably the easiest. You do not need a 8lb hammer. Any hammer that is bigger than a toy should work.
20 oz? 2.5 lb? You just need to make sure your tools can take it. A good quality wrench is a must. Cheap HF ones may break.
