    I follow what the manufacturer says regarding oil.. As for the drain valve, it is probably down towards the top of the lower unit...

    The drain plug is about half the way down the shaft just above the foot. You can miss it on the side. I use the Mercury 4 stroke oil but all my friends use a good synthetic out like Castrol or equal. I was scared to try at first but after I did it was so easy.

    You should be able to just take the filter to an autoparts store and they will be able to match it up for you
