Stop in for a cup of coffee

Good morning, so I called around to 4 different plumbers. And 2 bulk plumbing supply places. Apparently while I can order the anode, there’s actually no way to replace it on this model of whirlpool. Not without taking the exterior of the thing all apart and putting it all back together. Apparently this model, they didn’t have an anode provision in the top, just marked its location with a sticker
I am assuming anode in water heater? I had to remove mine and plug as with the well water it got horrible sulfur smells. No issues with that afterwards.
