I think you might have a hard time finding your tail shaft, since your front wheel drive transaxle doesn't have one. Look at the passenger side of the trans housing, near where the axle shaft goes in.

You're not going to see or get to it from the top, you have to crawl under the car. To get you in the neighborhood, drop a visual line to the ground near where the alternator is, and back a little.
