Engine coolant drain plug

I have a 2001 V6 Camry.

The Haynes manual inducates there are two drain plugs, one in the front of the engine and one in the rear of engine.
I found the front plug however I could not find the rear plug.

I went to the Toyota dealer and looked on there computer. They show a different part number for both plugs. The rear may have appeared to look like a bolt.

Would anyone know where this plug is located in the rear of engine?

How much fluid would remain in the rear engine block if I were to drain the system without removing the rear plug?

I would rather remove the plug but if I don't then if I knew the remainig water left behind after the flush then I could adjust the antifreeze for the water left behind.

I Have A '97 LE V-6


On Each SIDE Of The Block Is A Coolant Drain (Drain Has A Small Tube)

(Front Of The Car) Side Block Drain Is Just To The Right Of The Oil Filter

( Firewall Side) Block Drain ( On Side Of Block) Is Easier To See With The Air Filter Box

Removed


Hope This Helps,


Ed
