AC Condensate Drain Hole Location???

[PWagon]

I just finished rebuilding my entire AC system and maybe went a little overboard by Dynomatting the whole evaporator box (mounted to firewall). I guess I forgot that the drain hole needed to be left open to allow condensation to drip out. Does anyone know specifically where on the bottom of the evaporator box the drain hole is? I really don't want to undo all the work I've done, and it would be easier to just remove a small amount of Dynomat to open the drain hole again.

I've spent a lot of time looking for this drain hole, and I can't find it. I'm about ready to get out the drill and small bit to drill a new one. Does anyone have a picture of what this supposed drain is supposed to look like or where it's located?

I appreciate that more than you know. I'll locate mine after work today and run piece of wire or something through it to unclog it.

sorry i told wrong thought it was in front

 

[Kain]

did you get it?

Yes, I was able to finally locate it. I tried looking from under the truck, but there's too much "stuff" blocking the view. So, I ended up wrapping a small piece of wire around my index finger, and bent one end out about an inch. I used it to feel around from above (reaching down between the airbox and engine manifold). Once I felt the drain, I used my wired index finger to poke the hole. There was apparently a lot of water just sitting in the box, cause it drained out quite a bit. Thank you for your help! I really appreciate it.
