OK, but powered aircraft refers to a powered glider or ultralight. There
are some gliders capable of towing a light glider or ultralight. Your
license tells you what AIRCRAFT you can fly, the CFI endorsements can expand
that by adding "subsets" (my choice of word) such as tailwheel, high
performance, or self-launch. Towing is not actually an endorsement. It is
training/currency that must be logged. You will not see any sample
endorsement in the AC covering instructor endorsements concerning towing.

You should probably read 61.69 which was the subject of this thread.
The FAA believes, and states, that being rated to fly "powered
aircraft" has everything to do with being qualified to tow.
