I did this on my 03 S 6 speed manual with the piece in the place. I was within a 1/2 inch of dead centre of the drain plug with a pilot hole and then lined up more precisely to drill the larger hole. I de-burred the hole with a Dremel tool. I'm not sure why Porsche didn't have a hole incorporated into the piece in the first place.
