Default crankshaft position sensor wire

Would anyone have a photo of how they got the wire from the harness down the engine to the sensor?

I am not thrilled with the way mine is routed. I have it next to the plug wire.

thanks in advance.

I plan to route mine down the right side bell housing with the starter solenoid and r/s knock sensor wiring. I am referring to a 07 L92. Not sure if they're all the same. I plan to wrap the wires with the metallic heat tape.

No heat tape. At its closest, the bundle is still over an inch away from the exhaust. Even if it was laying on a primary tube, it still shouldnt ever get above the heat rating of the split loom unless the engine was running lean causing the headers to glow
