Bank 1 is the passenger side of the vehicle and the sensors are numbered from nearest the engine to furthest.

I'm sorry, the O2 sensors are in the exhaust, after the manifolds. Crawl underneath and have a look. Number one is upstream of the cat and number 2 is after the cat. The sensors on the air box (to my knowledge there is only one) would be IAT (Intake air temperature) and MAF (Mass Air Flow).

Bank 1 is passenger side bank 2 is drivers side. Number 1 is upstream (before the cat) between the manifold and the cat and number 2 is downstream from the cat.

There are 4 sensors, but only two affect engine performance. The second two, downstream, only monitor the cats performance.
