oil and filter change ml430 99'

i have a 99'ml430, and i bought an oil filter at the benz dealer in order to change the oil and filter myself. i was a bit confused when i opened the hood because i could not find the place for the oil filter (the filter looks more like an insert). need some advice

It is on top on the drivers side of the plastic shroud piece of the engine. The plastic piece has a large round hold in it so you can loosen the filter. It is a black cap with 14 flutes x 76mm.

Directly to the upper right of the MB star when looking at the engine if I recall correctly.
