manual transmission oil stinks so you might want to use the screwdriver.
I don't know for sure but I'm told that some chevy s-10 manual transmissions use automatic trany fluid, so you might want to look in your owners manual before adding oil first

The upper plug is the one to remove, if nothing runs out, stick your pinky finger in and see if you feel any oil.
If not, fill it up through that same hole until is starts coming out.
Also, do all of this will the truck on level ground and not on ramps or anything.
