Default C5 6Speed Fill Plug Location

Need the correct location for the 6 speed trans fill plug. I have read posts here that show it on the drivers side near the bottom where there is a sensor (Marks 2004 Z06), and another post showed it above that location (How To Section). Seems like the drain plug is the same in both articles.

Pictures would be helpful. Thanks!

Interesting. My fill plug is different on my ‘99 base 6-speed. No sensor.
