Default Radiator Drain Plug

Anybody got a picture of the drain plug on an 82? All I can see is a large bolt like plug at the bottom of the radiator. HELP!

Thanks for getting back so fast. I tried to loosen that one, but it felt like the whole bottom of the radiator was twisting. Don't really want to buy a new radiator right now.
