Code 171

How's it going, just had a code pulled on my rig.. 171 bank 1 running lean. Checked and confirmed all lines are not leaking and there's 18.5 bar for vacuum at the motor and at the end of line on the vacuum system, not sure what next. The truck is running good as far as I can tell, any ideas would be great
Thanks

Is it possible that your bank 1 O2 sensor is/has failed? I've read about O2 sensors failing without codes on here. If I recall correctly, I think a failed O2 sensor could cause a bank to run lean all the time. If the sensors upstream of the cat are the same maybe you can swap them and see if the code follows?
