Mahindra 5145 Hydraulic Fluid Return Port

[confederatemule]

I am mounting an auxiliary, two spool, control valve on my Mahindra 5145. It is an open center system. I have to run a hose from the "t" port on the auxiliary valve to the fluid reservoir, which is the transmission/differential housing, on the tractor. I have looked more than once and can not find a plug or anything similar to connect to.
Can anyone tell me where I can attach the hose to the transmission/differential housing to return the fluid on the 5145 Mahindra?
Thanks fer any help.

Can you follow the Tank line of the loader valve and Tee the new line to that line? Might be another option.

I will try tomorrow.

This is the only plug I can find. I am pretty sure it opens into the differential housing.

That could be it indeed. Accordingly to the parts catalog, it's just a plug (#15) and not some sort of valve. Looks like the threads are M22x1.5.

Well, as it turned out, I was called away from my tractor today. Maybe tomorrow.
