It can be found in Article V of the Constitution.
Article V: "The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate."
The amendment process is allowed for in Article V of the US Constitution. It outlines two methods for proposing amendments: by a two-thirds majority vote of both houses of Congress or by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the state legislatures. Amendments must then be ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures or by conventions in three-fourths of the states.

The 2nd Amendment refers to the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution. It does not compare to the Constitution, it is part OF the Constitution.

Neither. The Necessary and Proper Clause is part of the original Articles of the US Constitution (Article I, Section 8, Clause 18), so it's not an amendment, but is a formal part of the US Constitution. When use of the Necessary and Proper clause is expanded beyond the justifiable reach of Congress, that would be considered an informal amendment process.
It's the 2nd amendment - so not even part of the original constitution. Something to remember when people claim it's a constitutional right.
amendment
That part of the Constitution is in the Preamble.
