It is on the left side of the engine (radiator side in the van) tucked in behind the exhaust and engine mount. The location makes it hard to see from above. To remove it you remove the converter, then support the engine and remove the front engine mount, then you can remove the starter and replace it. I like to remove the radiator fan assembly as well to get more room to work and get more light into the area.
