Default 2019 G29 transaxle oil replace

i have a 2016 G29 with dry drum brakes and 6" lift. I want to change the transaxle fluid and am very confused as to the proper drain and fill. With the lift the drain cover is basically facing the ground.
I can see of the drain cover where there is a big rubber quarter size plug is, im assuming that is the drain plug.
However i cant find the fill... There appears to be another form of quarter size flat plug on the top side of the axle opposite of the motor. Does anyone know if that is possibly the fill? It is slightly countersunk into the top of transaxle so im not sure if/how it even comes out.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

The countersunk one is the fill plug.

My G29 is a little older so mine may be different because I have a metal plug. Mine has a Team axle and I think they got away from those a few years back.

You could probably find it in the owners manual.

Pull the diff cover to drain. Why you need to change brand new oil anyway?

Cart is a 2016.
I just figured it couldn't hurt to change it since it was a fleet cart before I got it. How often would you recommend changing it?
