It’s probably above a removable part or port in the undercarriage cover

Did you look on TOP of the engine…drivers side front?? That’s where it’s located on my 2007 4runner with the same engine.

In a Haynes manual. You may have a cartidge type filter, so the manual would be a good idea anyway to tell you how to properly replace this.

The owner’s manual probably has a diagram or picture showing the location of the filter.
