Default De-Tango Success - CEL Fail

Took a brave pill today and de-tangoed my headlights after receiving some Silvatec indicator bulbs from Scoobyparts. Really pleased with the result after a trouble free hour of headlight removal and baking (might even enter the Great British Bake-off now!).

In an unrelated turn of events my trouble now is the appearance of the check engine light. I had it a month or so back and using my cheapo eBay special diagnostics checker found it to be "Camshaft Position Sensor B Circuit Malfunction (Bank 2)".

I have managed to remove and clean all 3 camshaft position sensors (2003 Sti Type UK) as I read this is a good place to start. I cleared the code and up until today it had not shown up again. I am pretty confident I have a failed sensor, question is which one as most of my internet searching hasn't really helped, has anybody got any ideas or advise?

Car runs fine and due to the nature of the sensor in question I would not expect it to have a major impact on day to day running. I would love to get this sorted ASAP as I am hoping to take the car for a bit of fun around the Goodwood circuit at the end of the month.
