Default Which drain plug?

I sprung a leak off of my clutch cable here it connects to the "Six speed" clutch cover and and need to fix it. I'm in between oil changes and would only like to drain the oil from that part of the motor. Which plug do I need to pull? I'm pretty sure I know the answer but a sanity check never hurts!

Thanks!

You could check the diagram in your owner's manual!

The transmission plug faces down, the engine oil plug faces to the front of the bike.
