Bank 2 is on the driver's side. I would check the electrical connector and if it is in good shape replace the camshaft position sensor. Here is the wiring for the sensor so you can match the wiring colors. Let me know if you need the connector view. Here are the locations and how to change out the sensors in case you need it. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.

Hi, thank you very much for this info. I did replace one of the sensors, but I believe I replaced sensor #1 on bank 2. I was still having issues, so I wanted to be sure of the location. I don’t really have pictures of the issue as the main problem is the engine misfiring. But I have pictures of my scanner showing the codes. I will upload two pictures; one is before replacing the sensor; the other is after. The misfire code went away after I replaced sensor #1 but i believe the engine is still misfiring.

Yep, it looks like you need to replace the other sensor and then clear the codes, I would also replace the spark plugs and clean the throttle body, MAF sensor.
