most likely under the rear seat, in tank filter as with most modern Honda's.
Remove the rear seats and there should be a metal plate that gives access to the fuel filter/pump.
If not the case tell him to ring a local honda dealership and a mech should help him through it.

There are two filters in general for most cars, one is mounted on the fuel pump inside the tank (which is hardly touched unless you're changing the pump) and one before your fuel injector rail. You can easily trace back from your injector rail and will find that the fuel filter should be near the firewall.
