On the right side of the block....closer to the rear. You can access it from the underside of the car. Someone once posted here that you can easily access it by removing the right wheel, but I don't see how this works. I think it takes a 19mm wrench. You should see it.

And don't be surprised if nothing comes out. If you run across that condition get a long screwdriver and work it in the hole. Eventually you'll get thru all the crap that has settled in there and it will drain.
