Cam magnet

Hey everyone. I got a 1990 Olds 98 Regency Touring 3.8
I put a new timming chain and gears in and as I was removing bolts from cam gear I guess I got my ratchet to close and magnet came out of holder and not being sure how it goes back in I just stuck it back in holder and finished the job.
When started it ran but my service engine light is on and after I scanned it I got a cam position sensor failure.
My question is could I have gotten my magnet in backwards? I know they have a different polarity on each end.
The magnet is still sitting in the holder.
It is a new cam position sensor.
Thanks for any help.
