On the subject (and without being much help to Randy), I was about to change the gearbox oil on Nancy (recently acquired BGT on her way back from a 10-year "rest"). I checked Haynes and there it said

There is a hole with a plug in the transmission tunnel. But the way I filled it was a funnel with a hose on it. Seems there was a valve on the funnel too. Gotta be in the garage somewhere... -- _____

The MGB gearbox can have either a top-fill with dipstick or a side fill. The 1979 car would have been built with the sidefill, but as gearboxes are interchangeable, you could have the earlier type.

A 79 should have the side filler/level hole accessed from under the car, it changed about the time the bumpers changed from chrome to rubber. FWIW I find checking my CB easier with its built-in dipst
