Yes it is at the end of the seat stay of the rear triangle. I have removed the paint via wire brush exposing the brazed area. I also drilled out as much as I could without compromising the tube wall. Here is the "Drop Out". It appears that it is located against one side of the tube with braze filling the remainder portion of the opening. I believe it is also bent to allow for proper alignment with the QR.
