i dropped the engine and trans list night via a cherry picker and jack stands, all went okay but as i was wheeling it out from under the car i went a little to fast and broke this sensor. i have no idea what it is, any help identifying it? it stands straight up on the back of the engine right behind the intake manifold.

 

oil sending unit

 

also, as i dropped the motor i saw a few hoses were completely burnt through. they come off of the top of the valve covers, maybe pcv, but im not for sure. any help identifying if i am correct? and if so, how should i route the new hose to work with the catch can i bought?

 

sounds like PCV hoses, here is stock routing, if its single catch can just run to the can, then to the intake...leave the vent tube for fresh air attached to the tb

 

I agree with all of the above information. The sensor is your oil pressure sending unit. Pretty much everyone breaks it the first time around. You'll probably never break it again.

 

awesome. thanks for the replies guys

 

Yup I did the same thing but my was on the engine stand I spun it around and caught the work bench...SNAP
