Draining coolant from engine block...???

I'm sure I've been staring at it for the better part of an hour, or it's obscured by bicentennial gunk, but...

WHERE is the bolt for draining coolant from the engine block???

It's a '76 F150 300 6 cyl - which I'm obviously fairly new to. Help would be much appreciated. A map would be grand!

Thanks.

Thanks for waiting...

Based on my research, there is a threaded plug of between the last two freeze (core) plugs on the passenger side.

If the OP looks up the engine on Autozone's website it will verify and identify what your research concluded HIO...
