Whats this?

Just put my RRV blade engine on the bench to start cleaning it up and noticed their seems to be something missing.
if you turn your head 45 degrees to the right it might make more sense!, its right of the clutch cover and below the oil pump(?) is it some sort of boss for a sensor or somthing?
ive looked through the heynes manual and i canrt find any refernce to it.

Haynes manual doesn't really show it very well but there's basically a 1/8" NPTF thread in the bolt that the sensor screws into, if you are not going to fit the standard one then you are best to use some braided hose and remote mount it as the vibration from the engine often means the aftermarket oil pressure sensor can sheer off.

HTH,
Rich.

If it helps here's a pic of where I mounted mine, I actually kept the original and fitted the Digidash one but the DD one has a built in low pressure switch anyway.
