location of knock box and atmospheric pressure sensor

I'm still trying to piece together everything I need to get her started. I was looking in my Haynes manual to see if I could identify all of the sensors on my car. I don't see the atmospheric pressure sensor or the knock box in the engine bay, or at least I cant identify them. The Haynes manual makes it look like they are on the passenger side of the firewall. Does anyone have a pic showing them so I know what to look for/buy from the u pick it junk yard?

GONG!

The atmospheric pressure sensor is inside the car on the passengers side. Far right and way up. Looks similar to the boost/pressure sensor.
