where you pour new oil in.
It looks like your unscrew it - but I've really yanked on it without much luck.
There are two locking tabs on the inside base (bottom) of the neck....

Lou,
I'm surprised that's not in the DVD service manual. Maybe one of the fellow LvC members that are Ford Techs can answer that.
