The Mystery Oil Sensor

When we put the new, shorter oil pan on the bottom of the engine, we discovered that an oil sensor that was plugged into the old oil pan had no place to go on the new pan.

After some researched I finally broke down and just asked the guys on the forum what the heck was going on. Turns out it's just an oil level sensor that the computer doesn't need. It powers a low oil level warning light.

So I have 2 choices, remove the pan weld in a new bung for the sensor, or do without an oil level warning light. Heh, if you helped me put the oil pan on, and tried to tighten any of the kickout bolts then you know which of these I'm choosing.
