Have you rechecked the error codes since replacing the cam sensor?

Can you swap with Bank 1 and see if the problem moves?

What is the code?
If it's a sensor open or short circuit, then it's the sensor or wiring.
However if the code is a cam timing or sequence error, then that would point to cam drive failure.
However a simple compression test would tell you that for definite, but often you can hear a cam timing issue, simple by cranking the engine, as it doesn't sound right.
