Oil Drain Plug

First Post, I purchased a MCS Chili Red Convertible a few weeks ago and am trying to get familiar with the different systems of the Mini,it's my first, and so far I love it , 6 speed manual Transmisson, top down etc. But I'm surprised there is nothing in my packet that shows the drain plug. I'm sure there is a "how to" somewhere if I can find it. I'm an Old F--t 72 YO and I figure I have about 300 weekends left to enjoy life. Any help will be appreciated,BTW I live in Dade City Florida,and in retirement I roll and sell hay on my farm Hayman4353

Welcome aboard...

There are alot of nice how-to's sprinkled across the site (some harder to find than others). Here is one that popped out on the search:

The pics do a good job of showing you where the drain plug is. I find the oil changes pretty easy, but a little messy...

Enjoy your Mini!
