Its kind of buried in the engine which is why I decided not to DIY it (is DIY a verb? I guess it is for me!). What I read is that you can get to it from the top of the engine by removing the passenger side intake manifold or go through the engine service panel behind the seats and remove the alternator.

Of course, there are several other components that can also cause this pair of CEL's like the change over valve or the check valve. Or it could just be a leaking hose/line.

Here is a reference diagram: Porsche Boxster Air Injection Parts

Here is a photo (courtesy of our sponsor) showing the reservoir with the red arrow. The passenger side intake has been removed and the reservoir is behind the alternator.
