Default Quick T5 question

I know the drain plug and filler hole are on the driver's side, but am I right in assuming they are the ones that need an allen key or hex socket? Gearbox is supposed to be from an EF by the way.

id say get a length of hose [garden or whatever] and run it from the hole to somewhere in the engine bay. chuck a funnel in it and pour away from a comfortable position.

hose and a coke bottle with the end chopped off. And it's actually a 3/8 allen bit. Capacity is 1.9 litres.
