It will be on the bottom of the radiator somewhere. It very well may be under some sort of shield or cover, but most of the time theres a hole where you can see it.
The best way to do it, really would be to take the bottom radiator hose off the radiator. It will drain faster from both the block and the radiator. Just remember that there will still be some coolant in the block that is below the water pump level.
If you want to drain the block you have to get at the block drains. There is one on each side, and are just a 3/8 pipe plug. One side will most likely have a knock sensor in it. taking out the block drain will completely drain the engine.
I know this is true, because i just installed a tank heater on my S-10.

Drain cock for the coolant is on the lower passenger side of the radiator toward the engine bay side of the radiator. Difficult to get at, but nothing a long, man-sized screwdriver can't solve.

AnswerThe drain cock is located on the bottom of the radiatior on the drivers side. That drains the whole coolant system. Take the cap off the radiator reservoir which is the radiator cap by the way. That allows the water to drain out pretty easily.
It's a small drain cock on the bottom of the radiator.
The pet-cock or drain-cock for most GM cars are reverse thread. In other words, instead of "lefty loosy-righty tighty" the pet-cock turns to the right to open, and to the left to close.
Should be either at the bottom of radiator or at the rear lower section of radiator
Bottom leftside of the radiator, be sure not to over tighten. I did this and broke the drain cock and leaked all of the coolant, on a hot July afternoon in traffic. You know what happened next...

With the vehicle cold, locate the drain cock on the bottom of the radiator which is a T-shaped bolt. Remove the radiator cap and loosen the drain cock. Tighten the drain cock and refill with half coolant and half water then run it and keep filling the radiator.
