The starter is always on the back of the engine. I don't know if your's is on the driver or passenger side, but it goes near the bellhousing in order to turn the flywheel or flexplate.

Look for the starter at the rear of the engine near the bellhousing, where it engages the flywheel or flexplate. The driver or passenger side was not specified.
