Question Knock Sensor Location?

Can anyone tell me exactly where the knock sensor is located on a 2004 Jaguar X-Type 3.0L Petrol?

The link Dell shared walks you through it and what you'll encounter. Short answer, it is in the valley under the manifold and plenums snugged next to metal coolant outlet pipe.

Thanks to Dell and ugotmale I found where the knock sensor is "supposed" to be. I found the treaded hole on the left side of the top of the engine. I am not sure why it was removed but, since I am getting a DTC referencing it, I will try and replace it. I have an unconnected plug that must have been used to connect it previously. I am so glad I joined this forum because I have gotten so much help and guidance from member responses!
