It's behind the left rear wheel. You need to remove the left rear wheel and wheel liner to see the filter. It's in a very tight location attached to the top of the frame rail.
Please update your User CP to include at a minimum your Year, Model and Location.
The year will make a difference in that you may need an upgrade to the fuel filter including 3 new fuel lines.

Many people refer to locations as Drivers side or Passenger side that's why the LOCATION is important to be added to your User CP.
Please add for future reference. While there you might as well add your ML's Year, which is also very important.
