What motor is in it? There should be a bolt for the drain. Some trannys say Oil drain above it. Some can be found on the side of the trans, or the bottom. Let me know the motor, I can snag a picture of mine if you have the 2.2.

Sorry it turns out they dont have a drain plug. Here is something I found on google that explains how to install a drain plug. Hope this helps.

"I stumbled across this today. I had to change the oil in a Daytona and I have seen Cliff's method-excellent if the tranny is apart but I really don't want to drop the K-member and remove the rear cover. I started to thread it in the hole at the bottom of the case and it started to cut thread-bingo, in like gold. I then made a hole using a 1/4 inch drill bit, drained out the oil, then used a 1/2 drill bit, then a die grinder to get rid of the lip and tapped it. Flushed the hole with some brake cleaner, I am not too concerned with a little bit of aluminum. Applied some thread sealer to a 1/2 pipe plug and voila, 20 mins of time and a nice drain plug installed.
Note, This may have been done before but never seen or heard of it.

Edit, you can go one size smaller on the drain plug size if you want."
