1/2 Way Done Flushing, WHERE IS Engine Drain Plug!?!? (FC)

This is on my 1990 TII (FC)

k so I'm HALF way done flushing my cooling system (did the rad just fine) but I CANNOT find the engine drain plug!!

I have the Haynes with me & all it can offer is a little drawing.
It's a pain because I still have all my powersteering/ac/abs/etc lines/hoses blocking everything.

Using the SPARK PLUGS as a reference point, can someone PLEASE tell me where the engine drain plug for draining the COOLANT is?!!?!?!?


I've removed the all the metal/plastic shielding from under the car but I still can't figure out where it is or what it should look like!!

OK so your looking down and you see the spark plugs. go to the CENTER housing its the one between the two Aluminum housings. Any ways on the lowest part of the center housing, but on the side look down there, there should be a 14mm down there, and thats drains the block. thats if they were cast the same as earlier rotarys but they should be.
