Car starts right up in in mornings. But if it sets for a couple of hours after it gets warmed up, it will crank over several times before starting.

pressure is ok test to see if it holds preossure for at least 5 minutes if not it may be a bad regulator otherwise scan for codes and check crank sensor.

Fuel pressure drops from 45 to 30 psi in five minutes. Where is crankshaft positioning sensor located?

no at shutdown if you rev engine fuel pressure going up will be normal but not by a lot.
