The BEST place to install the drain plug is in the bow of the boat on top, in front of the carry handle. Then you can drain it by flipping it over and lifting the stern in the air. We did this with my son's Vapor 10 and it worked very well.

Prepare the Motorcycle:
Ensure the motorcycle is on a level surface and turned off.
Allow the engine to cool down if it has been running.

Transmission drain plug location on 2004 Cadillac deville

The OEM manufacturer did not install a drain plug in the transmission pan of the vehicle. You must drop the pan to drain the fluid. This is normal as you usually service the filter when you drain and fill the transmission.

Adding transmission fluid

Found this on wiki answers

There is no dipstick on the Malibu transmission. To correctly check fluid level, you must locate the filler cap and the drain plug on the transmission. The filler cap is a red cap located on the drivers side of the transmission between the air filter box and exhaust crossover pipe, almost under the crossover pipe. The drain plug is located on the passengers side of the transmission, just behind where the axle connects to the transmission. It has an 11mm head and can be seen if you lay in front of the passengers front tire, look about 3 inches above the transmission pan. Once you have located these, warm the transmission to normal operating temperature, and with the car running, transmission in park, and the car sitting level, slowley remove the drain plug, have a drain pan under the plug in case any fluid comes out. There should be very little fluid coming out, if there is none coming out re-install the plug, remove the filler cap and put 1/2 quart of fluid in, now run the transmission thru all the gears and back to park. Put the drain pan under the plug and remove the plug, if it is overfull, let it drain until it stops, if it still doesn't have fluid coming out, add 1/2 quart at a time until it does, following the above procedure. Make sure you let any excess fluid drain out and re-install the plug. As noted above, make sure the car is running while checking the fluid. I know it seems complicated but it isn't as bad as it sounds. This same procedure applies to all Chevy Malibus from about 1997 until 2004 if I'm not mistaken.

Oil Change

Depending on the manufacture some come with oil filters and some without. There exists on all machines a drain plug located on or near the bottom of the crankcase housing. Use a suitable container to catch the drain oil ( 1 gallon drain pan ) . Drain the oil completely from the crankcase some drain plugs contain a magnet to catch particles clean it off prior to reinstalling it, reinstall the drain plug. Locate and remove the oil filter making sure the old oil filter base gasket comes off with the old filter, install a new oil filter as described by the manufacture. Then refill the crankcase with the proper mount of new engine oil through the filler plug/ dipstick hole.

What is the pan right in front of the oil pan and has a pipe plug in it? What kind of oil goes in there and where do you put it in? I'm thinking it is the primary chain oil,but I'm not sure.

I suggest you read your owners manual and get acquainted with your motorcycle. The engine oil drain plug & the transmission drain plug is something you should know. One is a 5/8 hex head vertical plug and the other is a horizontal plug.....The engine oil drain hex bolt is located on the right side of the motorcycle and is removed/installed horizontally.
Transmission oil drain hex bolt is located on the left side of the motorcycle and is removed/installed vertically.

How do you add transmission fluid to a 2000 town country

The tranny fluid is added through the tranny dipstick (make sure it's not the oil dipstick). Fluid color should be red and the dipstick should have instructions on how to check level (car in park, engine at idle). Funnels are your friend here.
