763 can't find engine oil drain

[MNBobcat]

Hi Everyone, I have a 763H and I am attempting to change the engine oil. It supposed to have a hose with a plug on the end coming out of the right side of the engine compartment. I cannot for the life of me find it. I've been in there with a flashlight and looked from every direction and I don't see it. The only thing I can think of is one of two things. One -- it doesn't have a hose on the plug or two the hose got tucked way in the back somewhere where it can't be seen. If its the latter, can I see the back side of the engine if I tip the cab open? I've not done work on the machine before. Thanks!

every hear that saying “ it's right in front of your face “ , you are looking for a hose , it comes of a swivel 90 degree fitting off the bottom of the oil pan , it will be facing up which will “ Throw ya off “ , the end of the hose will tucked into a hose strap , you pull it out the strap and pivot it down , then remove the cap with two wrenches , piss poor design , tilting the machine back before starting job helps , getting oil hot before starting and removing the fill cap to let it breath will help , if yoy don't do those things it can take an hour to drain -------- if you are in a hurry try sticking a air hose blow nozzle into the oil fill hole and stuff a rag around the nozzle , it will drain the pan fast ------------------------as far as I know all 763, 753, 773 were all Kubota engined

Thanks FF. I found it before your reply. I stuck a camera on a flexible hose in there and found where it came out of the drain pan. The hose ran across the back, bottom of the engine and was tucked underneath the engine on the left side. Not at all where it was supposed to be.
