oil pressure sensor

[tommye30]

I have found oil leaking from what I think is the oil pressure sensor
it's below the oil filter housing and its pluged into the block with one wire coming from it .
if it is the oil pressure sensor how much would i be looking at for a new one.
oh the engine is a m20

Leaking oil pressure sensor isn't unusual. If it's got a single wire coming from it, then it's the oil pressure sensor.
Only two types to choose from - pre facelift and post facelift (different connectors).
