E60 M57 engine coolant drain plug

Hi Guys,
I would like to ask for help to find engine coolant drain plug on M57N2 Diesel motor from BMW E60 525d LCI 2009 version. I have seen lot of videos and post here but everything about N47 motors where is missing coolant drain plug on engine block. What I know from BMW parts website, M57 has engine coolant drian plug here, part 10,11: http://bmwfans.info/parts-catalog/E6.../engine_block/
On picture it is here

But I would like to know in which area should I looking for, because when I look on left side of my motor I am not sure in which area is this drain plug, is it on left side down? under the exhaust or more to right side and in the middle? do I need to dissembemly some parts to have access to this drian plug? Second plug is directly on radiator but If I would like to change coolant I need to open drain plug directly on engine block not only on radiator....
thank you so much for help.
