thanks in advance
Here's a pic from a GTP to help you out with the harmonic balancer removed. As the previous poster mentioned its around 10 - 11 o'clock. The opposing sensor at 2 o'clock is the crankshaft position sensor (CKPS). You'll have to pull the harmonic balancer and after that it will be obscured by a plastic cover which has to be removed next.

Also check the condition of the wiring, especially the electrical connector plugs to both sensors and clean with electrical contact cleaner after putting in the new camshaft sensor. Good luck!
