I believe that motor is a known sludger 1MZ-FE? I had the same motor in my 98 Sienna.
I would use a good filter Wix, Napa or Fram Ultra along with a good synthetic. PP or Mobil 1 5W--30. Make sure you check the PCV valve and replace if necessary. I wouldn't go longer than 6500-7500 MI OCI IMO.

10W30 in your fave brand with an oem Lexus filter. I think you can buy oem Lexus filters at Walmart now.
Considering your mileage, Mobil 1 High Mileage oil with a Mobil 1 oil filter will do for 7500 miles or once a year. I would do a 5000 mile oil change with it first because it might clean up deposits left in the engine if it's always used conventional oil.

What would I search for at Walmart.com? I cannot find a Lexus filter.

I have been using PH3600 size/equivalent filter from Napa or Wix or Fram Ultra (XG3600).
This is a bigger (2x) size equivalent with the same nut thread.
There is no specific Lexus branded filter, there is the Toyota branded filter that may be (?) available at Walmart but I don't think it is at all WM all over the world only in select location (YMMV), though.

I'm not completely sure which part number fits your car, but Walmart.com has this one (out of several) which I saw listed at a Toyota/Lexus online parts store for the Lexus ES300. Go take a browse through your closest Walmart to see what all they have in stock. They're beginning to carry a lot of oem stuff.
