 Hi Jerry... how are you doing?

Ok, please give me a moment to check the schematics of your rav 4. Please stand by , thank you

By the way Jerry, almost all the drain plugs looks like the picture below. Do you happen to see that on the bottom of the radiator? at the back when you are facing front. Please let me know when you see it

That's the drain plug Jerry. Rotate it counter clockwise to drain the coolant. Please make sure that the engine is cold before doing so to avoid injuries. This can be real tight and if you can't remove it by hands you can use a long nose pliers

Is there anything I can assist you of Jerry?

There's no drain plug in the engine block Jerry

It's just on the radiator
