Oil Change

This should be a no brainer but...I'm doing an oil change on my 302 and can't seem to find where exactly I'm supposed to add oil. Is it through the dipstick tube?

its on the driver side valve cover. toward the fan there should be a metal cap right on top.

here is mine. it's right in front of the spark plug wires on the right side of the pic.

Thanks for the quick reply. It did the trick and my oil change is done!

It only took 4 quarts of oil. For some reason I thought it would take 5. Also, what brand of oil would you recommend for next time?
