Oil change question for C5 Specialist or anyone with a manual

Hi all,
I am looking for a copy, scanned or faxed, of the page in the factory manual (for my 2002) that tells you about changing the oil. I need the torque value for the drain plug and or any other pertinent information that will allow me to change my engine oil. Thanks in advance, Pete

Pete,
I highly recommend the magnetic oil plug (as the web site says).
A buddy of mine had one installed on his next oil change found neadle bearinings from his rocker arms which were defective, its a good investment for $2.95.

How about that new magnetic oil filter too. I think it goes on the end of the oil filter and collects the same as the magnetic oil plug. I hear it works great, but I don't know personally.
