What does Data's Endoskeleton look like?

Without his skin I mean?
We only ever got glimpses of what's underneath.
I'm sure Soong type androids don't look as intimidating as your regular Terminator.
But there has to be a construct there resembling to a human bone structure.
On the other hand, whenever we saw some skin removed, all that was visible was a metal surface with lots of LEDs on it.
Even when Data's face in First Contact was mostly gone there weren't any movable pieces visible at all.
How does he moves his skin, if there aren't any muscle imitating parts?
 
also you might want to look at the ST-TNG Officers Manual
page(s) 122-124
It goes into detail about Data's workings and has pics.

^^^^^
That's from FASA's "The Next Generation Officer's Manual" supplement for their RPG circa 1988 or '89, IIRC.
 
Here's a color version of the same pic on the back cover of the Officer's Manual. God, I miss FASA's Trek RPG.
