Lexus owners don't change their own oil?

I guess that's what Lexus assumes. I went to change the oil on my mom's Lexus and opened the owners manual to locate the oil fitler and drain plug. Well.... there was info on how to check the oil, what oil to use, and how to reset the maintaince indicator. It doesn't actually tell you where the filter and drain plug are though however.

The drain plug was easy enough to find. The oil filter? Not so much. I crawled around under the car for a good 10 minutes with a flashlight before I finally found the filter; I had to remove the front undertray first to get to it.
