FNG question

Just bought my 1st diesel an 04 250. It's starting to get cold so looking into the block heater thing. Crawled under the truck and it has what appears to be a factory/dealer installed cord. The problem is the way it's routed I can't follow it and I can't locate the plug. Is there a standard place they stash the thing.

most trucks with block heaters tend to have em wrapped/zapstrapped to the front bumper center area..

block heater

it was the 110v end I couldn't find. However I found the info on the tech side of FTE and just went out and found it. It does not however just "pull out" like the article says. But a couple scraped knuckles and I got it. Thanks for the reply.
