It looks to be attached to the side of the tank behind the sheild.  It looks as though there is an access cover to get to it.  HTH

There should be a skid plate, or sheild bolted to the tank brackets.  I was looking at a poor picture of the system, as I have not yet replaced one personaly.

This is what I found.

For the 2005 model year, the fuel filter was changed from an external mount to internal version that is part of the fuel sender assembly. Due to the fuel filter location change, there is no longer a recommended fuel filter replacement criteria.
05 Chevrolet Trailblazer and Trailblazer EXT) and ( 05 GMC Envoy, Envoy XL and Envoy XUV) and ( 05 Buick Rainier

Yeah, that's what I thought.  I was pretty sure that the filter was internal to the tank...

seems to be a common problem with the 2005 models. Our Envoy XL had the same problem, when we took it to the dealership to have it fixed, the mechanic said he has had to work on them often.

It is a bit of a headache to change an internal filter, but at least you don't have to drop the whole tank.
