There should be one on each side of a V-type engine,but on your 235 it will be on the driver-side toward the rear of the engine.(you can install draincocks in the place you removed the plugs). Put in some radiator sealer/conditioner and add 50/50 mix of antifreeze/water. 
There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us. - - Be yourself. If you are ever lost, It will be much easier to find yourself if you know who you are!
