Where do I find the oil drain plug on my riding lawn mower?

Where do I find the oil drain plug on my Yard Machines 42" cut riding lawnmower? I assumed it was under the engine, but I couldn't find it, does any of you know a good website with a diagram of the mower? Thanks for any and all help.

Ya, it was definitely caked with crud, and so I couldn't see the square 3/8 drive hole. I found it by accident shortly after posting this. Thanks for all help!

PS. Also shortly after, I (while thinking purposefully about NOT doing it) stuck my hand under the idling blade, I got 9 stitches in one finger, 3 in the other, I'm lucky to have them at all. call me absent-minded...

Some makes - Briggs and Stratton, Tecumseh etc often have a steel pipe coming from the side of the engine, with a square ended bolt screwed in. Some of them have a plastic capped bayonet fitting which you press in and turn to drain the oil.
