Separating the lower receiver out of the upper should be able to reveal the top of the plate... better idea to watch a youtube vid to see what else is involved in taking the gearbox out completely.. then reverse the process to reassemble and readjust motor height.
??? - the selector plate on most every (I'm sure there's some exceptions out there somewhere) V2 pushes the safety bar forward, flipping up the blocking arm inside the mechbox...which (as you described correctly) physically blocks the trigger from moving.

Are you thinking of a V3 Ak type mechbox? Where the selector plate doesn't actuate anything that blocks the trigger...usually some other gear/cog does that.
