There’s nothing to find; the FBX importer is built-in and works automatically. Materials are specific to whatever app they are made in and do not transfer to any other app.

When you export the fbx files from Maya you can select the option “File Type Specific Options → Include → Embed Media”. This will embed the textures with the fbx files so that when you import into Unity the textures will be imported alongside the model. Alternatively you can import the textures into Unity separately and Unity will search for the textures.

Note when the model is imported Unity will create materials for all the textures. You can then modify the materials. If you need 2 different materials that use the same texture then you need to create extra materials within unity, apply your texture to them then replace the materials on the game objects as required.
