Where is the igniter (ignitor to help future misspelled searches) location of Phase II SOHC EJ25's?

 

The 2000 Forester and 2003 Legacy I have do not have it in the same location above the pitch stopper, behind throttle body like the typical 90's EJ's.

 

How do igniters fail? Is it black/white, on/off, yes/no, or can they be "weak, fuzzy, etc"?

The ignitor is integrated with the coil pack.

 

The coil pack is the black box, bolted to the top of the intake manifold, dead center of your engine bay, with 4 spark plug wires going to it.

 

 

And a diagram:
