Default 1998 sportsman regulator/rectifier location

where exactly is the rectifier located at? in the parts diagram it shows it somewhere in the front. i saw what i thought was it at the the bottom of the terminal board. according to the diagram that looks to be the rev limiter. i need help so i can get my brother in law bike back charging. was going to check for incoming a.c. voltage to the rectifier if i can find it.

not really sure but it might be on the front down and to the left( if your sitting on the bike) like a little black box with wires coming out of the bottom
