Location of Camshaft sensor / magnet

[rag1873]

Im hoping someone can tell me where the camshaft sensor / magnet is in my w202. Been told to check if this is filled with oil etc as its a common fault.
Out at the car just now and cant locate the camshaft sensor!

Thanks

Usually front passengers side of the rocker cover. Thats on a 111 engine. If its a 271 engine it will be half way down the rocker cover (passengers side)
