On mine it's on top of the swing arm a little towards the front.

Ditto. YMMV, but the fitting on mine is dead center top of the swingarm and faces toward the right side of the bike. I have the stock battery box in mine and find it makes things mucho easier if I loosen the bolts holding the battery box down, then lift the box out of the way with a couple of paint stirring sticks taped together. Gives a much better angle to the head of the fitting, prevents that blob of icky spillage from growing on top of your swingarm...
