Shall we assume you're talking about ODBII or 38 pin?

You can't miss it really. Get a flashlight and a mirror. It may have a cover on it, may not. It's more than likely towards the left side, close to parking/foot brake.

It looks like clogged EGR pipe can cause that code, and is a common problem on that engine. Detach both ends of the pipe and clean it out with a wire or speedo cable.

A 95 SL500 was just OBDI. Only the 320s got it early.
