Default 89 FLHTC Oil Plug?

Can anyone tell me where the oil plug is to drain an 89 FLHTC? I see one plug directly under the engine, which Iunscrewed and nothing much came out.and another under the back right side of the motor?

Softtail is different from flt`s you probably pulled the tranny plug the oil plug is on left side and points out or parralel to the engine pan ,or at least its that way on newer flht`s it should be a 5/8 bolt that also has a allen socket in it.
