Can’t locate fill plug for manual transmission

Hi everyone

I need help locating the fill plug for my 6-speed manual transmission on my Audi A3 (2018) 2.0L, TFSI.


I’m trying to change the oil in the transmission. Found the drain plug easily enough as you can see in the video hopefully, but not the fill plug. 
 

I’ve watched loads of videos on YouTube and it should be on the front of the housing facing the radiator from what I’ve seen but mine seems different. 
 

Can anyone help? Thank you

I just saw this.  You may have figured that out by now.  I don't know for sure, but does this model have oil cooler line attached with a banjo bolts?  If so, that would be your fill port when unattached.  My 2004 C5 Allroad 6 speed Quattro had that. The Bentley service manual did not show that.  On mine there was two drain plugs for Centre ( with fill plug on passenger side) and the rear tail section with drain plug and the banjo bolt "fill plug".  Need two new crush washers if banjo bolt removal needed.  I live in Canada, so I may not have been any help on your model..  But?
