SW48 diff drain

Anyone have a picture of the diff drain or a very good description of where exactly it is? First freeze and the diff is ice locked. I have the cover off and a heater on it over night to thaw it out. Procrastination got the better of me as I wanted to change the fluid before I started using this beast. Also looking for the repair/service manual for a '68.
 
It's often on the side of the diff under the axle. Right side... I think.
 
My JW67 or SW48 to some folks has a drain between the sprockets under the front, it is hard to notice because it is recessed and takes a 3/8 extension inserted into it to remove. So with a flash light you should see it, mine is in the middle if I recall.
