To replace the engine oil in a Fiat 500, loosen the drain plug located at the bottom of the engine bay: once this plug is loosened, you can let all the used oil flow into a suitably positioned container. When the oil has completely drained, close the plug and open the bonnet: this will allow you to locate the oil filter at the bottom left of the engine block.

Replace it with a new one, then pour the engine oil through the breather on the left side of the engine block.
