Question Oil change help 06 Road Glide

Where is the engine oil drain on a 06 Road Glide, is that the one at the front of the oil pan? I found 2 plugs, not sure which one. I am doing this for a friend of mine, also want to know the oil capacity, thanks!

The oil drain is on the left front side of the oil pan. It is a horizontal to the pan. Some people put in 3 1/2 quarts and then check it and add more if needed. I always put 4 in and it works just right.
