On a 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue with a 3.5L engine it is behind the starter at the front of the car. .
I had to replace the Crankshaft position Sensor on my 99 GL with 3.5L. It was on the backside of the block directly above the starter. To get to it, I unbolted the starter from the transmission and dropped it down a few inches. The Crank sensor is mounted to the block with a single small bolt that is hard to get at, but you can see it. You'll need a fairly flat socket or wrench to work it loose as there isn't much room.
On a 2001 with the 3.5L it is located on the front of the engine, more to the drivers side than the passenger side. You will need a 15 mm socket and an 8 inch extension for the starter bolts. You will need a 10 mm wrench for the plastic shroud which helps support the starter, and also the sensor bolt uses the 10mm wrench as well. I found it easier to slide feet first under the properly supported car to do the work. The higher you can get the car, more arm room you will have as the sensor is in a kind of awkward space.
The crank shaft positioning sensor is behind the starter. A real bear to get to.
For 3.5l, remove starter.
Its either your cam shaft position sensor or the crank sensor.
under the starter
The crank shaft position sensor is just above the oil filter at the tail end of the starter

One symptom of a bad crank shaft sensor is the car having trouble starting. The car stalling and backfiring are other symptoms of a bad crank shaft sensor.
The crank sensor on a 2001 Malibu is located on the bottom of the engine near the crank shaft. It monitors the rotation and speed of the crank shaft.
