You know I am...I don't have a life! Just kidding.
The following diagram shows the oil pump (#1) and screw filter (#2) just in front of the pump. "The gear oil is replaced and the screw oil filter is checked or cleaned during the running-in inspection, and later according to service specifications (estimated after every third engine oil change)."
They don't want mere Owners messing with this stuff! The filler is generally about midway up on the side (right, I think) of the gearbox (17mm sounds about right). Capacity is a little less than 2 liters, I believe, but I don't have exact specs.
The current fluid is MTF-LT-3 and comes in a 5-liter size (#83-22-7-533-818). If you bring your own container the parts dept. should sell you 2 liters.
