TL 2002 shop manual (can't find the oil filter)?

I was going to attempt to change my own oil, but I saw some
stuff in other forums about using a crush washer on plug &
changing the plug once in a while -- got me to thinking there
may be some special stuff. Also, I could not find the oil filter?
Where the heck is it (don't say on the engine block, pluheaase)?

So I started searching for a shop manual for the 02 TL. Couldn't
find one. Found a Chilton for 95-00 models. Does a 3rd party
manual exist for 02 TLs? Can you buy one on CD from Acura
dealer?

Service manual can be purchased from Helm (1-800-782-4356 helminc.com) for $69.00 plus shipping /tax ($80.95). Big fat book with lots of pics and step-by-step instructions - excellent for the do-it-yourselfer.

Turn the front wheels hard to the right and look inside the passenger's side wheel well - you'll be looking right at it or close to it..it might be behind some of the splash guard plastic stuff.

it is on the passenger side right next to the wheel. It is right there. Can't miss it when you are under there.

A picture is worth a thousand words...
