is it a nightmare to change crank position sensor?

I know this is an old post, but you don't need a BFH to fit it in there. It never touches or comes close to the firewall either. It sits above the diff cover on the 4T60-e. I used to remove an axle/hub as one piece to get the alt. out from the wheel well, vs the other way to do it which was dropping that side of the subframe, which is the same way I would go about getting at a CPS sensor on an auto car.

I think you are correct. On my car you cannot see it at all without taking the Alt. out, but the only way to take the alt out is to take the axel out.

I replaced mine before it went bad. I did it from the top when I had the heads off.
