The timing belt is under the front engine cover. Access is somewhat difficult. To get at the belt, you will need to remove all the accessory belts, and the A/C belt tensioner. You will need to raise the car, remove the right front wheel and splash shield for access. You will need to remove the crank pulley. This will require a special tool which you will either have to buy or fabricate, unless you have an air ratchet large enough to get the crank pulley nut off, which will be very tight. Once that is off you can remove the timing cover and get at the timing belt.
