Looks like your oil pressure sensor. Is your oil light on when you start the car?

Let me mark it so its easier to see. Is this a serious problem or will I be fine driving it around for a little while? No check engine light on.

It connects to the oil filter housing.

No light currently on when car is started. I think its the oil pressure sensor as well. The plastic fitting completely snapped off when trying to unbolt the Front Diff fill Plug.

The wire must have been in the way and the plastic fitting snapped.
