Angry need some 6.0 help - cam sensor

Man these engines are not very reliable are they? My uncle has one, my cousin has one, and my dads work truck has one..and between the 3 at least one of them is not running properly at any one time.

I need to help my dad replace the crank sensor and the cam sensor on his work truck. I already replaced the crank sensor but cant seem to locate the cam sensor. I looked for diagrams online but can not seem to find one. Everything I have found says "where it should be" but does not give a picture of the exact location. Does anyone know where I could possibly get one? Maybe even a write up with pics?

TIA

when left and right are quoted it is from the driver seat facing forward point of view.

No worries Park, my fault. Maybe he is a better person than me since he's paying attention to which forum he's in?
