Rear-end oil plug

Ok, I must be an idiot because I can not find the fill plug for the rear-end. I have a rear axle oil seal leaking and I need to add oil to the rear-end. I have looked all over the pumpkin and can't find it anywhere. Where is it located??? I have the parts to change the seals but I need to use the truck one more time tonight before I tear it apart. Thanks ahead of time.

It's on the driver-side of the pumpkin, in front of the axle tube and right about at the level of the axle shaft. It takes 3/8" square drive ratchet to remove it.

Thanks, found it. It was packed with dirt and hard to see even when I knew where to look.
