Default Accessory Oil Port

I am installing one of the AntiSplatAero Air/Oil separators and it is supposed to use the oil return in the accessory case. Is this the oil return in question below the magneto in this photo? It is REALLY in there good and taking quite the effort to try to remove. So before I get REALLY aggressive, can someone confirm this is the right place?

It probably has some locktite 567 style on it so I'll try heating it up now that I know its the right plug.
