It's on the right side of the engine block, near the coolant drain. There is a plastic cap screwed over the connector. Covered in oil and dirt it may look like just another part of the block. Once you locate it and wipe it off it can be unscrewed with pipe pliers and removed. The cord for the block heater plugs into the connector and its hood then screws into the threads that the plastic cap was in.

Yup, midway between the oil pan and cylinder head. Below the manifolds.

if you can't find it...
Throw a shop light under the engine(on ground under oil pan) and cover the hood with a blanket for the night.

A halogen multi hundred watt lamp would work well for that.
