Modelling a curved object

Hello,
I've been struggling for a few days now to model a rounded object. I need some help on how best to model the object shown below.

I have tried using both surface and form but without success. Would anyone have any advice on how to do this?

 

The hardest thing for me to sculpt is the "knee" that is beveled on the sides

Thank you very much for your ideas.

I watched the above solutions, and they are missing 2 very important parts of the solution, which is the top view of the part, as it decreases when reaching the fillet, like this :

And, that the profile is actually elliptical  and not circular.

Here is one way to do it using 2 lofts, using 3 profiles. Kindly check attached .f3d.
