The sensor is mounted on the back of the throttle body. However it is mounted with riveted screws. Normally you would have to replace the whole throttle body just to get the sensor. You can take a dremel or some other handheld cutter to cut a lone throught the rivet so that you can stick a flathead screwdriver and unscrew it. Next you have to find a sensor. Junkyards are a place to get a used throttlebody or you can check ebay where people did the dirty work for you and took their old ones off. Had the same problem and a friend gave me his off a d16z6 for my JDM b16a 1G. So almost any honda TPS sensor should work.
