2001 isuzu rodeo engine coolant drain?

Question

I'm replacing thermostat in my 2001 isuzu rodeo v6 3.2 and need to drain coolant from engine. I already drained from radiator, but I can't find the drain plug on the engine block. Does anyone know where it is? Thank you for your help

Cant find the thermo... but where i think it is is impossible to get too!! my air filter hose is right above it and there are too many tubes!!

There isn't one on the engine block. And, you don't need to drain the whole cooling jacket anyway. Just catch what spills in a drain pan placed under the thermostat area of the engine. You can remove the lower radiator hose to drain the engine block if you really need too though.
