The drain plug is on the lefts side if you were looking at the front of the car... so yes the passenger side. That little piece of silicone hose is there just to guide the coolant downward so it doesn't get all over the place. You can pull the hose off to get a better view of the plug

Drain plug is right under that silicone piece of tubing, left side or passenger side of the radiator. Turning the tubing doesn't loosen the plug. You need to get a large phillips head screw driver up in there to unscrew it.

Anyone know what the ID (inner diameter) of this hose is? Mine appears to have fell off at some point, but think it's a good idea to get one on there before doing the drain/fill.

According to page CO-10 of the FSM (see link in post above), it's 15-16 mm ID and 145 mm long.
