Is there something like IIS 6.0 Resource Kit Tools for IIS 7, specially the metabase explorer tool to be able to edit the IIS configurations without editing the .xml and .config files directly?

A:
You can use the Configuration Editor built-in IIS 7.5 (Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2), which can also be downloaded for IIS 7.0 (Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008) from http://www.iis.net/download/AdministrationPack
(See the video in the URL above, minute 1:25 shows the tool).

Seams exactly what I am looking for, but for example I have a case in which I need to edit the maxAllowedContentLength in the IIS, where to find this in this tool?

If you know the section, then you can just select that in the combo box, however, if you do not know the section name, I usually just open %windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\schema\iis_schema.xml and search for the attribute in there. You will find the sectionSchema element and you will see the name attribute, that is the one you will need to select.
