I use a trick to take out the oil filter...

there is a bend back spot on the splash gaurd right below the oil filter. So I undo that and then I use a large garbage bag and sort of stuff it up in there. It keeps the oil from getting all over and basically keeps things clean.

Not any easier, but at least it's cleaner.
