There is no plug. You can weld a bung and put a plug in when you pull it, or put an aftermarket pan on. There is no drain from the factory. Don't forget to drain the convertor too.

If you are going to replace tranny fluid, why not take the opportunity to replace the filter and clean the grunge from the pan?
