Default Coolant Flush and Fill

I was trying to do a coolant change, but was not able to find the engine drain bolt. The picture in the service manual is not very clear. Is it possible for someone to send a picture of where the drain bolt is or can anyone suggest any other method to drain the engine coolant.

Thanks,

There is a drain on the bottom of the radiator.

I know about the drain bolt for the radiator, but is there a coolant drain bolt for the engine block.

It isn't really necessary to drain the engine block.
