On the 6 Cylinder #5 Looks to be the right rear.

Right and Left Bank Designation

Right hand (RH) and left hand (LH) designation through the engine mechanical section are viewed from the rear, non-front-cover side, of the engine or from inside the vehicle. These banks are also referred to as Bank 1 (RH) and Bank 2 (LH).

I think the Service Manual. Although that maybe from Motor Publications, they usually have helpful diagrams where the service manual just describes it in writing. I work for a shop that has a subscription to the info.
