Immersion heater

2003 F250 7.3
My build sheet says that I have an Immersion heater. I searched the forum and it says that it is located around the oil filter. There is a wire coming from the oil filter mount, but I can't see where it goes, nor find an end anywhere that will take a 120 plug. The wire from the oil filter i feel is probably the sending unit. Where would the wire be located in my unit. As I have read , it may only have the heater, and never had a wire hooked up. As always Thanks for all the help. Hammer65

My 02 plug is in the hole with the left side tow hook, I had a hard time finding it the first time, if you get off road it will be covered in mud. After you find it you might want to zip tie it to the tow hook.
