facing up towards your car with your feet sticking out under the front...

look to the right of the catalytic convertor.

black pan with a 16mm or 17mm plug angled toward the rear of the car..

easy to find. just start unscrewing stuff until black stuff pours out...

Isn't there supposto be a washer on the drain bolt? i took it off and there wasn't anything there?
If there is supposto be a washer there how much harm is there in not replacing it till my next oil change??

There is usually a rubber washer with it. It won't kill your car to not have it, but get one for your next oil change.

It's NOT rubber
It's an aluminum crushable gasket / washer,...
$0.80 of leakage insurance,... quite worth the price

replace yours if its rubber. that is most definately NOT the place for a rubber washer to be.
