I just purchased a 05 Santa Fe 4WD. I looked under the car and could not locate the oil filter to change this weekend. Does anyone know where it's located?

Just a guess here but the appears better than what you have gotten so far. The engines sit transversely so it is probably on the back side towards the firewall. Hard to see from the top and much easier to see from under. Put it on a ramp and look straight up from the cv axles. You will find it.
