Yes there is one on each side. Bank 1 (Pass) is damn near under the AOS at the right rear of the engine. The other is on the front left above the Varicam solenoid.

Hello and welcome to the forum! Take a look at the link below from a related thread from our Boxster forum - there is a diagram inside as well. Hope this helps you out a bit. Let us know if you have any other questions!
