My 2006 Sorento has a protector plate under the engine---you can drain the oil without removing the plate if you have a funnel that can be pointed towards a hole in the protector plate, but it is a tight fit.
Removing the plate will expose the oil pan and drain plug as in all engines.

To change the gearbox oil in a Kia Sorento, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and secure it with wheel chocks. Remove the drain plug from the gearbox and allow the old oil to completely drain out. Replace the drain plug, then refill the gearbox with the appropriate type and amount of oil through the fill plug using a funnel. Finally, check the oil level and ensure there are no leaks before starting the vehicle.
The drain plug on a 2006 Kia Sorento is located on the engine oil pan, typically at the bottom of the pan. To access it, you'll need to raise the vehicle securely and locate the plug, which is usually a bolt that can be unscrewed to drain the engine oil. Make sure to use the appropriate tools and have a container ready to catch the old oil. Always consult your owner's manual for specific guidance and torque specifications.
remove the big plastic skid plate and it's right there , the filters there but under a fuel line.

On the oil pan, shouldn't be hard to find if you get under there.
