GTS Radiator Drain Plug?

My radiator doesn't seem to have one. Does anyone else with a GTS have a drain plug on their radiator? I have one on the sedan, I don't understand why it doesn't have it...

Hmm, ok, I looked with a mirror and felt around a bit. I'll check again, but I dunno. Thanks!

EDIT: Nope, just checked thoroughly, none. I just pulled the bottom radiator hose. What a bother..

It is probably broken off.

The long thin twist off part has a tenincy to let go after a while, but the plug remains inside the rad.

I know because mine just did the same thing, and I can't find a replacement anywhere.

Does anybody know where to get one for a 5sfe aside from a toyota dealer? I don't feel like paying $69 dollars for it.
