Fuel Filter Location on Monaro 6.0L VXR ???
Discussion
I believe it is located in the fuel tank as part of the sender unit and does'nt look like its part of a service shedule(sure someone will correct me if im wrong)
ignor me i must be wrong as the service kit from monkfish comes with one, but its odd i carnt find a mention of it in the gm manual

I was supplied a fuel filter but can find it anywhere so I think you are correct it must be in the tank.
I found these proceedures for the Pontiac GTO :-
Fuel Filter Replacement
Removal Procedure
Remove the modular fuel sender assembly from the fuel tank. Refer to Fuel Sender Assembly Replacement .
Use a flat blade driver to assist removal of the fuel level sender assembly harness connector from underneath the modular fuel pump and sender assembly cover.
Use a flat blade driver to assist removal of the fuel pump harness connector from underneath the modular fuel pump and sender assembly cover .
Press in the tang retaining the fuel pump connector on the fuel pump and filter assembly, then remove the connector.
Remove the modular fuel pump and sender assembly cover from the reservoir.
Remove the fuel pressure regulator.
Pry open both tangs securing the fuel outlet connector to the bottom of the motor and filter assembly , then remove the fuel outlet pipe from the motor and filter assembly.
Push the motor and filter assembly down the spring shafts and remove the circlip (only one shaft is fitted with a circlip) from the end of the shaft.
Clamp the protruding end of the modular fuel pump in a soft jawed vice to support the fuel filter and pump assembly in place.
Important: Do not over tighten the vice grips as this may damage the fuel pump.
Insert a pair of medium sized flat bladed screwdrivers through each of the service holes in the fuel filter assembly.
Firmly slide the blade between the fuel pump end cap and the internal fuel filter clips that hold the fuel pump in place.
Push the screwdrivers in far enough so that the internal fuel filter clips are deflected just free of each of the fuel pump end cap retainer shoulders.
Hold the screwdrivers in place with one hand, and move the fuel filter assembly in an upward direction to separate it from the fuel pump.
Remove the fuel pump assembly.
Remove the black ground wiring bridge from the fuel filter assembly.
Installation Procedure
Install the black ground wiring bridge to the fuel filter assembly.
Push the fuel pump assembly in the fuel filter housing, until it locks in place.
Push the motor and filter assembly down the spring shafts and install the circlip (only one shaft is fitted with a circlip) to the end of the shaft.
Install the fuel outlet connector to the bottom of the motor and filter assembly.
Install the fuel pressure regulator.
Install the modular fuel pump and sender assembly cover to the reservoir.
Install the fuel pump connector on the fuel pump and filter assembly.
