Does the camshaft position sensor drive the oil pump on a 99 Ford Taurus 3.0 engine?

Does the camshaft position sensor drive the oil pump on a 99 ford tauraus 3.0 engine? Ford Taurus: 3.0 liter 12 valve engine, 1997 - 2006. The shaft that is used to rotate the camshaft position sensor also rotates the oil pump. The shaft is driven by a worm gear on the camshaft. The position sensor end of the shaft can fail and poor engine performance results, if the entire shaft quits rotating because of a gear failure the oil pump quits rotating (pumping) and the resulting lack of engine lubrication causes the crankshaft bearings to fail and the engine will stop (permanently) within seconds.
