    t here is a second one but it is not recomended to use it because it tends to snap or strip out I think it is near the transmission portion of the motor

    Don't bother with even trying to find the middle-gear drain plug. You have to drop the Seca's exhaust system to access it.
    There isn't nough oil left in there to worry about, and it gets diluted with the new oil.
