Yamaha DOES NOT recommend synthetic oil since it's a splash system. The also recommend 10/30 oil. Not 10/40. I texted them a couple of years ago about the oil velocity, and they said only 10/30. They should know. The drain plug is on the bottom of the engine on the side, underneath the clutch. Make sure you change the aluminum gasket on the drain bolt.
