I can't find the fuel filter on the car listed above with a Honda 3.5 v6 L66 engine.

Hello,

The fuel filter is located in the fuel tank. It is part of the fuel pump module.
In order to change the filter you will have to remove the tank to gain access.
The filter is part of the primary fuel module in the tank.
If you were to remove the tank, make sure is that the tank is as empty as possible, which will make the process easier.

I have attached the diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.

Thank you.
