its there. i just looked at my wagon. behind rear seat.
1.pull up rear cargo/trunk carpet
2. (standing at the back of the car looking in)...there is a wood/cardboard looking thing under the carpet.. just before the back seats.
3.there are two round black (plug/clips) holding the (wood/cardboard) down.
4.remove (plugs/clip).. then remove (wood/cardboard cover thing)
5. fuel pump cover plate is right next to passenger side strut tower
i had your same problem when my fuel pump quit on me. i almost thought the gas tank need to be dropped, lol had a full tank too.

Thank goodness Subaru was smart enough to do this. Pulling the gas tank on an AWD car sucks ass.
