Question Oil Pan Access

I have a 2015 TH, there's less than 500km on the clock but I wanna get that mineral oil out of the crank case before it gets much colder. Where exactly is the drain **** located? I'm sure it is obscured by a metal plate but I think there are a few down there, so I'm wondering which one I should pull off. Is it behind the engine, like on a Wrangler (and most cars, I think) or how do i get at it? I was taking a look when I had it on jack stands and couldn't see anything that looked like the oil pan, so I'm thinking it's under one of those plates, just don't wanna lose time pulling off the wrong ones.

TIA.

There's nothing to be found online at this point.
