Default AC Drain Location/DIY AC Refresh

Hey guys, 2014 IS250 owner here. I've got the notorious musty AC smell going on, so I read a couple threads and then ran down to the Toyota dealership and picked up the AC refresh kit (00289-ACRKT). Once I got the car up on ramps, however, I couldn't for the life of me figure out where the AC drain line comes down. I found water dripping down the back of the transmission housing, but my fear is that the AC drain is located somewhere above it. Can anyone help me out and point me in the right direction?

The drain can be found in the front right tire wheel well.

please dont do that unless you only wish to have nice smelling windshield washer drains..... the drain for your evap is exactly where you think it is. above your trans right in the center. that is why you have the water dripping off of it
