Beneath the exhaust manifolds, at the bottom of the block near the back there is a drain plug, 17mm I think.

It's far easier to flush the block with clean water to remove old coolant, and then add the full amount of undiluted new coolant required to the coolant tank when refilling, then finishing off with more plain water.
