Fuel port location help

Hi Folks,

I've been working on a diesel refueling station and I have an old Alco RS-2 I was going to use to simulate taking on a load of fuel. Trouble is I haven't been able to find out where the fueling port is located on the engine. I saw one picture online that showed what could have been it on the side of the cab below and aft of the windows but i'm not sure so I figured somebody here would know.

Regards and thanks in advance!
Dave

Here's a better one, you can see the fillers red cap and the fuel level gauge just in front of it. The cap will be on the end of a neck, so if it's missing on the model, it's broken off. Quite common.

Don't forget to paint it red then:p. Wonder what the box on the R.I's walkway contains that necessitated the kickup in the handrail.
