It's sort of hidden on that engine. You have to remove the air intake box on top of the engine. Then you remove the oil separator and under that is the cam sensor. What code do you have that makes you think it's an issue? When was the timing belt last changed?

I can't remember the codes of the top of my head, it was on my friends code reader, but three of the codes said camshaft position sensor, everything else I saw pointed to that location, but I couldn't find any real sources, that 3rd picture is exactly what I was feeling under there thank you so much.

I can't get my ratchet to grab the bolt it's at a weird angle how to I get to it, I've taken off some hoses and I can't get to it it's almost like I need the engine out.

I use a swivel socket or a short extension with a wobble drive and a short socket for the odd angles.
