Torque Converter Drain

I am about to change the trans fluid in my 2001 powerstroke Ex. Can anyone tell me if my torque converter has a drain plug? If not can anyone tell me the easiest way to drain and replace all of the transmission fluid?

I just drained our v-10.Not sure if the t-converters are different.There is a pipe thread plug visible thru the hole in the bottom of the bell housing.I got it to line up by bumping over the starter while looking thru the hole....took a few tries to get it!!!
It took right at 15qts to refill it after doing this and dropping the pan and filter.
