There is an oil fill at the valve cover and right hand side of the block just below the injection pump. Dipstick/tube for check on the right side of the block.

Yes, the oil pan will have two drain plugs. Even if it's 2wd, it will have two.
I don't have my quick reference chart handy for the oil qty. but that sounds close.

Lets start with some clarity that might help you in the future!
You can not have a DT-F, that would mean you have a 4wd (DT) - 2wd (F) tractor, no such model.
You have either a L3400F (2wd geared), or a L3400DT (4wd geared), or an L3400HST (4wd HST)
By your serial # you either have a DT or an HST.

No you do not fill via the dipstick hole.
Like Pat said you fill it via the valve cover.

And I think you have the same engine as my L3700 and it holds 7qts with a new filter.
