Have a look on YouTube, there are a few vids showing the location. Basically hidden down below the airbox and intake. Even when you know where it is it's not easy to see!

As for sealed for life........ If by life you mean 'warranty period' or 'length of lease' then yes. If you plan to keep for a reasonable length of time I would get it changed. Few threads on this, search 'Gibbons method' for a complete guide.

Depends on what type of transmission you have. TF-80SC has no dipstick, the level has to be set in a different way.
