This may not be the same scenario but maybe it will help you out.
I remember working on a car several years back that was giving the same cam position out of place message. I took the car to my brothers shop; he has better diagnotic equipment. His equipment gave us 2 different messages. I can't remember for the life of me what the other two messages were or what I replaced, but when I fixed those the warning lights went off. The point is the real problem had nothing to do with the cam position sensor.
