HI there,
There can be several causes for this code. Since you only have the code on one bank of the engine I would look for a bad O2 sensor on bank 1 or an intake manifold or some other type of vacuum leak. Sometimes the pcv valve hose will cause a small vacuum leak and the O2 sensor will see the lean condition.
