Android NDK location for Android Studio 4SDK

I installed android studio manager 4.
I'm using gamemaker studio 2

I just don't know where the NDK file is, for Preferences | Platform settings | Android ?

My SDK is at
C:\Users\peter\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk

but file explorer search is not showing any NDK path.

All I've done is installed these 2 things.
Have I missed a memo about configuring them?
Do I need to download and install an NDK separately to the SDK?

Many thanks
Peter

Thanks Rikman!
After literally more hours of researching, I found out it wasn't installed by default.
I had to ELECT to install it on Android Studio 4 via
TOOLS | SDK MANAGER |
Appearance | System Settings | Android | >> sub tab SDK TOOLS >> Tick NDK (side by side) and CMAKE.
(not so easy to find huh?)

and then mine was where it was supposed to be;C:\Users\peter\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk\ndk
