It's under where the drive shaft goes in on the passenger side.  But why do you need to drop the box?

The box has to cum out to get to the clutch or u telling me there's a quicker way

But you don't need to drain the oil, it can stay in.  Although it's a good idea to replace anyway if you don't know when it was done

It'd be a good idea to release the fill plug while the 'box is still on the car too, after the oil's been drained obviously. Saves wrestling with the fill plug later with the box rolling all over the floor.
