1989 300e
Camshaft position sensor

I've read that the 89 124 does not have cam position sensor then I've seen them listed for sale.
If it does, where is it on m103? Is this correct and how? And does this actually control presence of spark?
I have a spark going to coil issue: New crankshaft position sensor, ignition coil, ignition control module plus recently replaced the OVP relay

CPS is on the rear of the flywheel housing M103 , and to see it you have to look down past the oil filter . The other sensor is at the front of the engine on the harmonic balancer .
