Mercruiser 5.0 sterndrive alpha drain plug location

[davidn]

I have a 2002 rinker captiva mercruiser 5.0 alpha sterndrive and am unwinterizing. I cannot find the location of one of the two blue drain plugs. I have closed the knob and put one plug back in. The other is under the engine somewhere. I have manuals but still can't find where it goes. Sad part is that I go through this every year.
Does anyone have pictures or advice? Thank you.

One each per exh. manifold, two down low on the block...one in front of the starter and the other http://www.mercruiserparts.com/Show...97&bnbr=150&bdesc=Cylinder+Block+And+Camshaft

I used a mirror on a ext. stick to see. You have to get you head down low or learn to see w/your fingers. Try doing it w//the exh. mans. so your fingers get used to feeling it.
