This crank sensor is behind the timing cover. I attached a location below.

Here is a guide that will help in more general terms:

If you need step by step instructions for this cover then can you let us know which engine you have? Normally I would just provide both processes but this is pretty lengthy so I don't want to confuse things with multiple engines.

Thanks
