I thought it was above the tank where the fuel line exits the tank. I think there is one of those Ford Quick connections on it.

under the body on the left frame-rail. about the size of a 20 ounce water bottle.
fairly easy if you have the tools...and a few warnings.
You need to buy A/C Line disconnect tools. If you ask a parts store, they'll know I'm talking about. It's a chunk of plastic that has a slot so you can fit it over the fuel line. Then you run it under a compression fitting to loosen a lock.
Also, Ford has started using these damn blue clips. You unlock them, partiall relock, then unlock...it's a major PITA and alot of people have broken their blue clips.
The front of the filter uses the A/C fitting, the rear of the filter is the blue clippy thing.
here is a great description of the blue clip.

btw, let the Expy sit for a few hours before you do this. Hopefully some of th pressure will bleed off...also, have a rag handly to keep the spray off your face

I looked at a couple of videos, and they all correlate with this one:
Top-front of the gas tank. Does your replacement filter have the two lines in, one line out like a normal 2009 Expedition filter?
