TO-35 Deluxe Standard Diesel 23C cooling system question

[Boomer(OR)]

I have a 1957 TO-35 Deluxe with the Standard diesel engine. I?m trying to clean out the cooling system and don?t see a block drain anywhere. Does anyone have a picture or schematic of the where the plug would be if there is one? I?ve looked through the shop manual and the web for any help. If there isn?t a drain plug how do you all rinse out the block? My radiator doesn?t have a drain plug either, so I have removed the lower hose to drain and rinse the radiator.

There is a drain on the RH side of the engine near the timing cover. I'll get a pic tonight for ya....

Here's a picture - drain is at 7:00 O'clock at the forward-most freeze plug....

Thanks that really helped. The reason I couldn't find it is that someone had put a threaded stud into the hole. It wasn't being used for anything so they must have lost the drain and put the stud in to seal the hole. Thanks again for your help!
