    Its easiest to get to from underneath the car. You gotta wedge your hand up around your axle on my car. I'm sure it's not much different for yours.

    behind the block, dead center.

    I like to drain my oil first, then take the filter off that way i don't burn myself on the exhaust.... your carbed, so you can't grab it from the top of the motor....

    if you lay under the car, and look between the engine and teh firewall, you will see it, like halxi said, right under the intake manifold
