Question 2003 6.0L diesel camshaft position sensor?

Can anyone tell me where the camshaft position sensor is on my 2003 6.0L F-350 Power stroke? I'm pretty sure that it is faulty and I'm tired of taking it to the shop. I think its a pretty easy fix although I have not attempted it before. Some ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

That's the code it's throwing. Any idea where it's located?

On the block drivers front at about 9 oclock on the power steering pump.It is tucked up there and is not easy access.it is held in with a 8 or 10mm bolt.

Hey man, I know it's been a while but I think the Camshaft Position Sensor is bad on my truck. What code was your truck throwing, and what symptoms was your truck having to lead you to believe it was bad? My truck is throwing a P2614 code which is the "Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit/Open". When it's idling or driving at a steady speed (not accelerating) it will surge or stall for a half second, and then start back up again right away. Was this the issues you were having? And if so, did the new sensor correct it?
