Ok thats weird cuz in the pic on that how to the drain pug is further back towards the tranny than mine. Mine is forward a cylinder right underneath the motor mount? Must be because its a 5.4 and mines a 4.6. Or maybe romea vs windsor? The OP has a 4.6 so if you dont find it where its shown in the how to look under the motor mount. I hope your lucky and its not.

Finally found it, the problem was, under my truck in one big pile of rust. All along i was looking for an alan key hext style nut. It was a regular Bolt style head. Not sure what the motor mount looks like. The closest thing to it was an orange type electrical plug? Anyways i found it and the coolant i drained was the first time ever. 370,000 km. Looked like hell water.

The Orange plug is probably for a block heater, unless it's a just dead connector hanging from the harness. - That's a steering assist connector. Our trucks didn't get that option lol.
The Oil pressure sender is down there as well.
Motor mounts- connect the motor to the frame rails. Their basically a large piece of rubber located between two pieces of steel.
Flush her out good

I did try impact on it last weekend, ended up breaking a standard socket (I have the 3/8" piple plug (square head) type).
Thanks for reply, I'll try it again today, since the oil has been soaking in for a week of driving. Need to get the cleaner & distilled water out of it.
