To answer your question quickly, no removal of the crank pulley will not affect your valve timing as long as you don't touch the timing belt. You don't have to.

That said, to get to the CKF you need to remove
a) Valve Cover
b) Upper timing belt cover
c) Alternator belt, P/S and A/C belts(if equipped)
d) Crank pulley(careful, don't lose the key)
e) Lower Timing belt cover

Now you can finally get to the CKF sensor.
Installation is (TADA!) the opposite of removal.
Keep are your parts and fasteners organized and you shouldn't have any issues.
Best of luck.
