Knock sensor is under intake manifold on firewall side almost square in middle near the oilfilter, its easier to access from underneath the car reaching up, exhaust is also a simple fix dependant on how inclined you are mechanically

I am new to car mechanics. Hardest thing ive done so far was change brakes n rotors. , so the knock sensor is on the back of the engine?
