On a 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL, the hood release lever is typically located inside the vehicle, on the driver's side, near the footwell or under the dashboard. It may be positioned to the left of the steering wheel, often labeled with a hood icon. Pulling this lever will release the hood latch, allowing you to open the hood from the front. After that, you may need to lift the hood slightly to disengage the secondary catch.
