form 7004extensionform 5472form 1120april 15

I missed the April 15 prep window for my foreign-owned single-member Wyoming LLC. I haven't filed Form 5472 + pro forma 1120 yet. Can I file Form 7004 to push the deadline to October 15? I've heard it works for the 5472 because it rides on the 1120, but I want to be sure — the $25,000 penalty for a late 5472 is brutal and I don't want to assume a wrong answer.
