That's the one, just take a deep breath and give it a go... Use a good, close fitting socket or spanner. Good luck!

yep that's the one
normally has a copper /ally washer behind it, all the heating and cooling makes em tight as,
just give it a tweek to get it off, then replace the washer (as this acts as a seal) the bolt should be fine.
if like a lot of these things, it's rounded off, tap a slightly smaller socket/spanner onto it then undo,
you can get magnetic or standard drain bungs off the bay for not a lot
