Part Near Oil Filter Leaking

Okay, here my question... There is a sensor just in front of the oil filter on my 'stang that is leaking... What is that part is it the oil pressure sensor? Any ideas on how to correct the leaking issue with this unit.

Take a picture; I don't have my stang handy to look at what you are talking about.

The oil pressure sending unit. If it's leaking, it's only fix is to be replaced....

I just bought a new one from NAPA for $10.... It takes a 1 1/16" socket to get it out. Mine also took alot of WD40 first.

That ubiquitous 1-1/16 in open end wrench again!

I will be changing my oil so I will replace the unit this weekend.

Napa lists a Oil Pressure Gauge Switch, is that the same as an oil pressure sending unit?
