If you're going to do anything to your car getting a Haynes or equivalent is a wise decision, especially when you consider that to break even on the purchase is about half an hour of cheap workshop labour.

drain plug is below the driveshaft on OHV
remove filler plug on top/side of gearbox and clean both the plugs,clear off any swarf and renew sealing washers.
oil should be filled to the lower edge of the filler hole.
as said though for around £10 off ebay a haynes is a wise buy
