pretty sure its a 30something mm bolt for the gearbox, the transfer box possibly has a 3/8'' drive drain plug though. cant remember, mine hasnt had a gear oil change in a while, she is due one!

if its on rhs under box number yes its the later drain plug type
For the record, my 54 plate landmark has 32mm A/F gearbox drain that needs a bloody big hammer and chisel to slacken and a quite large torx filler plug.
Transfer box has a 1/2" square filler plug behind the handbrake cable and a 3/8" square drain.
Why they couldn't use one fixing for all I have no idea.

It's directly under the bottom of the bell housing next to the edge of the sump, I know where the oil drain/filler plugs are but unsure of this one ?
Thanks

I would take that out unless you are doing alot of wading, as my mate found out, silt and crap can build up and damage your clutch plate!

remove every 6000 miles at oil change to check.
