If they're the same as mine it's towards the rear on the drivers side and towards the front on the pass side, it uses a large hex head.

You may need a torch to heat them up and break them loose. Don't force it if it won't come out though, if you round/break it you'll just be worse off than if you hadn't drained the block.
