I need some help.
The bolt where the gearbox oil is totally rounded off and I need to top up the gearbox/transfer oil. My only option is to go through the breather hole which should be somewhere at the top. I was told it was behind the starter motor but Im finding it impossible to locate. Does anyone know where it it on the ST205 GT-Four? .jpg)

why not drill it out and replace with a good bolt?

because it's a 24mm bolt and I don't have a drill bit that big or a thread dye of that size. I'd probably have to remove the entire gear box and have it milled out.
For now I just need to top it up because the fluids are drained from when I changed the prop shaft. |

its the round thingy right next to the engine mount. but you can also fill from that 24m bolt head right next to it.
