How do I change the oil on a 2003 Venture?

Never done this before... Where is the valve that the oil drains out of? Where is the oil filter? How much oil do I add after I drain it all out?

I believe most of this is in the Owner's Manual, but here goes:

Drain plug is in the bottom of the oil pan. You will need a wrench for that.
Oil Filter in between the engine and the radiator. It should only be hand tight, but you might need an oil filter wrench to get it loose.
My manual says that it takes 4.5 quarts of oil.

If you have any other questions, just let us know.
