Oil pressure sensor ... I broke mine hte first time taking my intake manifold off... vacuum line for brake booster caught it and snapped it... gotta replacement from the dealer
(as an FYI, the sensor next to it is the Cam Position Sensor)
(the sensor in back sticking up is what I'm assuming you mean correct?)

Even without the tool it's easy... but depends on what tools you have (the "right" tool is a special extra deep socket that goves over the sensor)
For mine I took the lifter valley cover off and then used a large wrench to remove and replace ... I think it was like 21mm or 22mm? not sure exactly (this was 2 years ago)
Not sure what torque spec it requires... I just tightened mine till it felt good and stopped... oil pressure gauge still works heh
