Exclamation Camshaft position sensor

Can anyone tell me where the camshaft position sensor is on a 2001 4 cylinder galant? I'm only going to be in town for a few more days and would like to get this fixed on my sisters car, but can't figure out where the thing is. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

2001 2.4L SOHC is on the right side of the engine. "Standard" time is 0.3 hours but I just replaced mine in about 10 minutes. Make sure you detach the intake hose in the front by the airbox and loosen the rear clamp and tilt the hose up out of the way. Requires removing the cable clamp bolt for the ??? cable on the top front right side of the valve cover. And it helps to remove the cable guild bolt holding the cable next to the wires for the CPS itself to get wiggle room to remove and reinstall it. Once you get the intake hose out of the way you should be able to see what's going on.

Just so you know, I did search it. If you google it, you find 4 different links telling you that it's in 4 different places. So I came here, hoping someone had a diagram or a more definite answer. I don't drive a mits and so I have no prior knowledge of these vehicles. Considering that this forum gets what, 4 posts a day, you'd think that you would enjoy someone posting on here, rather than jumping down their throats. Anyways, thanks jackass.
