Oil and Filter Change, easy peasy.

I use two ramps. They sure make it easier for my old body to get under there, which also makes it easier to look around at the undercarriage.
Under both front wheels? Or both on one side?

I see ramps available with about a 2.5” rise, and others with about 6” rise. Not sure the 2.5” would do much, but I guess they would minimize retained oil caused by the tilt.
 
Where are the ones that we buy from the dealership made?
I think Toyota has a couple of countries that make their filters, the country of manufacture is always printed on the box, if I remember correctly the case I purchased from the parts counter state "Thailand". The carCareNut guy did a video on knock off filters. He said many knock offs state the were made in "Japan", the color on the box was slightly off and the print was slightly off.
