Shift Pivot Screw

[isis]

Where is this Shift Pivot Screw in a force motor? I was reading people taking this screw out while changing the lower unit oil by mistake. I want to drop the lower unit in my 1989 125 force and want to stay away from this screw. I can't see how anyone would mistake the lower unit drain screw. I know the shift linkage rod is up under the mounting bracket and is held it by a cotter pin.
