What are you trying to drain? To winterize your 3.7, you remove the aft plug on the heat exchanger. Here's a link to the manuals, you want #8

Yeah there is one block drain on the port side of the engine and another antifreeze drain on the underside of the heat exchanger. There are two drain plugs on the exchanger, the aftmost is raw water the forward one is antifreeze. As Mike asked, what are you trying to do?
