M104: Block heater?

Where does Mercedes install a block heater on the M104? Just a freeze plug or is there a threaded plug like the diesels have?

We don't live in Antarctica you know. Shouldn't a gasser be ok on its own? (Though I agree its always good to pre-heat an engine in the cold...gas or diesel....)
