3rd Generation Location of R-154 manual trans. drain plug?

Just a new owner of an 87 supra turbo seeking some info.

Could anyone tell me where the manual trans (R-154) drain plug is on it? Is it that weird looking "bolt" sticking out of the bottom (towards the ground) in between the trans mount? Anybody have a picture?

I found the Fill plug, but for the life of me cannot locate the drain plug. This after I just got done replacing the exhaust manifold gasket and ALL the turbo gaskets in my backyard.

I just fell in love with this car and want to properly maintain it, Thanks!!

I know it sounds like a stupid question and I feel really stupid for asking it because Ive changed manual transmission fluid in about 2 dozen cars (Chevy, Ford, Honda, etc..) thoughout my life yet this POS ToyoDA (as it says on the PS fluid res.) is hiding its drain plug on the tranny.

PLEASE SOME ONE HAS GOT TO KNOW WHERE THE FUCKING DRAIN PLUG IS ON A R154 MANUAL TRANNY!!

Or do I bust out my drill and start hackin?

It's been a while since I looked at mine, but IIRC it's something like a 23mm socket on the passenger side. Realistically you don't fill from the 'fill plug', you pull the shifter linkage and pour it in from up top.

However, like I said, it's been a year since I looked for that plug.
