Where's Coolant Engine Drain Plug on a 300 TD?

I am trying to drain the coolant on a 300 TD and I can see where the drain plug for the radiator is, but I don't know where to find the plug on the engine block.

I'm not sure of your model year...

If you have a 617 series engine, there are a couple of photos in the DIY Wiki thing. Up at the top of your screen under "Resources" choose "DIY Articles", then "Engine", then "OM617 engine block drain removal".

I have not done it yet, but it is supposedly anterior to the starter, accessed via passenger side wheel well.

be sure to catch the washer that is under the bolt head.
