It is on the back of the engine, near the firewall. About half
way down the the block, accessible under the hood on the passenger
side.
Your left arm will enter from the side (and get scraped up a little
about 2/3 of the way up your forearm from your wrist to your
elbow), and you can see (at least the top bolt) from above.
The lower bolt is about 1 1/2" directly below the upper one, and
you will be able to easily touch it to put the socket around it.
Box end wrenches work also.
It will have (2) 10mm bolts that can easily be removed with a 1/4"
drive socket. I like using a flexible extension. Make sure you have
a purchased a new gasket for it in advance. I made one using some
gasket material, but the metal gasket would be best. The gasket may
cost up to $11 with shipping if the parts store orders it for you,
or $6 online.
