Default WTF is this????

Hi, Haven't had a lot of experience with Jeep motors and I have found a broken part... But as I am forking out dollars every day I thought to ask as google wasn't as helpful as I thought could be. I have a strange broken item behind distributer on my TJ 4.0 L6 engine. I am thinking it must be oil pressure sender but had hoped someone could confirm... Live remotely and buying all parts online.

Pic attached...

Thanks

Is there a wire nearby that would reach that location?

Thanks, naturally it seems like the only possible option as to what it is. But then again with what the previous owner did absolutely nothing would surprise me.
There is a small plastic film in the middle of it which can't be seen.

As mentioned is there a lose plug that reaches there? OPS has a oval plug.
