   Is the drain for a gear box on the side. I can see a bolt with a square socket, I just thought it would be on the underside

   its on the bottom of the box, facing the wheel, not pointing down, the filler is on the end of the box close to the arch liner

   I can find the plug on the side, which I think is the filler you mentioned. The breather I can see on top, just struggle with the drain

   Its an 8mm square drive at the side of the box on passenger side, if you cant see it take the wheel lining off and passenger wheel and you cant miss it

   Ffs 2 halfords and two car parts places and no one has a square socket in stock. I have one at my dads house which is 35 miles away

   just use an adjustable spanner. no need spending extra for bits you may use once.
