Check engine light

I went to autozone today so that they could read the code on my truck and it said my bank 2 was lean. What could cause this? They said anything from maf, egr valve, or vacuum line leak could cause this. What do yall think

you might look at this;

also it may indicate that you need a tune-up or it may have a vacuum leak. If it's got a lot of miles on the plugs it can make the o2 sensor show a code for a lean condition just simply because the plugs aren't doing their job anymore.
