you must mean the oil pressure sending unit
its a tall cylinder that screws into the block behind the intake, so it sticks up and is easy to break off since its plastic
be very careful when putting the new intake in and don't just ram it back to far in a hurry, take your time and don't force anything
there's really not much to swapping intakes on these engines....its basically a case of unplug and put everything back once the new intake is in place, of course you fbody guys have to work under the cowl and windshield which blows haha

looks like another guy just made a post about breaking it just pulling the intake...
I'm not sure how really since I have so much room, so be very careful pulling the intake too. Lift it up just enough to break the seal against the block and then pull forward slowly would be the best way I think but you might pm someone who has done this on an fbody car

You are correct. It tends to run leaner because it is the last cylinder to receive fuel on the DS which tends to make it hotter. Some people when they get their injectors rebuilt/flow tested run their richest injector in that spot to compensate.
