Mr ttowne66 saved my bacon; he took pics of his, and I finally saw what I was not seeing before. My backhoe subframe significantly hides the drain plugs; just enough access if you know exactly where to look.
Re. the Wix filter; it's kind of funny. Right on Wix's website filter lookup cross-reference it clearly shows the TA04037710 KUBOTA filter as the Wix 57098, which is the one I bought. (It cost me $21; the price on the Kubota from the dealer is $43.)
I called Wix; they told me the Wix 57098 IS NOT listed for a Kubota. Their website says otherwise.
The attached and following photos show the problem with the Wix filter
