Camshaft position sensor on 00' Dakota

[Jose88]

My Dakota showed a p0340 code and a p1391. Did some research and found that the camshaft position sensor had to be replaced.. anyone know where it's located? Or a picture? something?

It's a very common thing on the 2000. The sensor is located on the passenger of the motor, under the exhaust manifold if I'm not mistaken.

It's held in place by one bolt and a wire harness hooked up to it.
