08 Es 350 A Simple Oil Filter Question

[joeyo]

I am about to change my oil and filter on my wife's car. (2008 ES 350)

I purchased a filter (cannister type / not a spin on typical filter)

Popped the hood and could not find the cannister.

I realize it is located below one of the cosmetic engine covers.

Rather than unfastening them to locate it can anyone out there

direct me to the the proper cover to remove.

Thanks in advance.

Lower right side of the engine... had to have a special tool to remove....the ones ou get at the auto stores will NOT do. It is easy and quick just raise the left side of the car and you can do it in the driveway.
