Should be able to view it under the column but may have to remove the ecsaine panel and or the metal cross brace to get good visibility.
Is your car OBDII or OBDI I though they didn't do ECU checks for OBDI?

I had the same question. The emissions equipment only works with OBDII (i.e., only if your SVX is a '95 or later model, if memory serves me right). Maryland only checks the gas cap and does a sniffer test with the car in park (you have to take the car up to 2k rpms and hold it there for a couple of seconds) if the car has OBDI or no OBD at all.
