Passenger side of block, a little ways up. Looking from underneath, you'll see a black cap, perhaps an inch in diameter, facing sideways but angled slightly downward.

Shouldn't need it, though, as far south as you live.

I had a both my 6.5L trucks protest the early morning start this winter and it was a chilly ride for too long for my Southern bones. The block heaters on a timer made all the difference in the world on start, deice and comfort.
