Unhappy A/C drain plug clogged?

So i searched the site and pretty much diagnosed the problem of being a drain plug for the A/C unit that is clogged, I noticed a few weeks ago that my passenger side floor was wet and thought it might have just been from passengers wet shoes or something of the sort, then today while driving with the a/c on for about 20-30 mins i actually seen a clear liquid dripping from behind the glove box onto the floor, its a clear liquid with no smell with the consistency of water.

After searching i found that other people with the issue had a clogged A/C drain plug making it so that it fallows the hose to the inside of the car instead of draining on the outside like its supposed to i believe.

After reading about where the location was, i heard it was easy to get to from topside of the engine bay, problem is i cant really see where it is. Ive read on the location of it but i cant see from the directions where it is.

so my question is it something that i should be able to visibly see? or would i have to take something off to access it or is it easier to come from under?

thanks in advance.

Search for "duck lips"; one of the threads has a picture of the drain and it's location.
