Water Drain Plug

About to install a new thermostat and water pump in the next couple of days. While reading the service guide it said to remove the front water drain plug on the engine block. Looking at the front of my FX35 engine, I can't locate it. Does it look like a bolt? Or different? A pic would be great! Thanks.
 
Thanks, but....

Yeah, I saw that vid before but it does not show where the front water drain plug on the engine block is located. The reason I'm asking is because I want to drain the engine block entirely of coolant with the least amount of mess.

The service manual says that there are three of these plugs. One on the front and one on each driver and passenger side. The drawing on the service manual sucks so a pic would be appreciated.

Found it... It's in a nook just below the water pump cover. I believe it's brass. But very hard to see from above or below the engine. I needed to get a mirror out and McGuiver it...
