There are 3 crank postion sensors.
1) on the toothed gear on the front of the motor (it is actually missing 2 teeth, which gives it a TDC refernce)
2) on the flywheel (on the actual starter ring gear?)
3) on the flywheel (measuring TDC or revolutions by sensing 1 stud go by.

You have been so helpful. I will let you know how I make out.

Thanks to Brynn for the assist from the other place.
