Ultramatic trap door

My 1954 Cavalier has a lovely carpet job by those who restored her/him about ten years ago and my question relates to a possibility trap door to allow checking the Ultramatic transmission fluid.

The front carpet doesn't appear to come out or peel back easily so I haven't messed with it. I can feel anything that would lead me to think there is a check hole or a plug or a cover.

I can't fit under and hate putting it up on jacks and nobody in Phoenix will put it on a lift unless they get to collect a service.

Maybe one of you who has seen a naked floor can tell me what to expect and about where.

My car has quite thick carpet pad and boots over the gas and brake pedal.
