There will be no designated bank for the crank sensor since there is only one. The sensor will be located on the right rear side of the engine. The exhaust manifold shield will need to be removed to access the sensor. After replacing, you will need to do a crankshaft variation relearn.

If you are looking to replace the camshaft sensors then there is a bank1 and bank2 since there will be four sensors. Two for the intake side and two for the exhaust side. See the images below for sensor locations. Hope this helps. If you need additional help then post the diagnostic trouble codes you got to see why it is you want to replace those sensors.
