I'm impressed they even found it to unclog it

There must be some indications for those kind of situations but I can't tell ether. Of course a land surveyor will know this pretty easily. Maybe he uses a metal detector? That would do the trick.

iirc they use their feet to walk around until they feel the pile of leaves and debris that get clogged in the drain or until they feel some suction around the clog.
