Everything is accessible without removing anything prior
Someone in another forum mentioned that new 50i's came from the factory with a protective cover over (under) the oil filter that dealer technicians routinely threw in the garbage after the first oil change rather than reinstalling it.

I mention it just in case someone runs into one. Otherwise, j6yd is correct, if you have even just light experience doing oil changes, you will not have any trouble recognizing the filter.
