Default Where is the sump nut for the auto gearbox

Can anyone tell me where the sump nut is on my Brothers 1997 850 tdi auto gear box please. I always do my own sevicing so you would think i should know where it is but i cannot find it. When i changed the engine oil i had the bottom plastic cover off but could not locate it.
Any help greatly received

When i done mine (S70) the haynes manual tells you to remove the bottom cooler pipe from the box, 24mm nut from memory, its on the front of the box, near the bellhousing, start the engine and allow it to all be pumped out from this hose and refill through the dipstick.

Edit: Must just check the manual again, as i sort of remember draining the box too :S

It says to remove the cooler hose then, but for all that came out of it i personally dont think its worth the hassle, it was barely a splash on the floor.
