That I can not verify but maybe one of the other guys can.

Crawl under and have a look, it is on the side of the block there somewhere.

Truthfully, when I first got my car and saw the coolant was brown, I ran water through the top and left the rad drain open until it started to run clear.
This dose not flush the engine unless it is running. I just keep filling the bottle with a hose.

I only did this because I new I was going to pull the engine in a few months and replace the gaskets.

I guess I am not a purest

As far as I know, Brad's photos point to the only location that I have ever seen for the block drains on our engines.

Be cautious when breaking those block drains free. You'll snap the bolt head right off from them if you're not very careful. Take your time.
