Checking gear box oil

Searched everywhere for gear box oil fill/level plug.....is this it? I didn’t imagine it would be accessible from under the bonnet but checked for access in sides of trans tunnel and no luck.

Edit the photo name so the extension reads ".jpg" for JPEG files and save the file. It is a "feature" in the forum software. In the earlier days when file extensions could only be a maximum of 3 characters the default extension name for files of this type was .jpg Hope that helps.

There's a cut away hole in the transmission tunnerl near the clutch pedal, with a standard four sided filler plug. I've had seen others where it is on the opposite side!
