Name this sensor !!!

What is this sensor??? I need to replace it because it's leaking past its Oring so I wanna just put a new sensor in rather than just an Oring..
is it an oil pressure sensor?? I swear i seen that it was on the oil filter housing but that may have been incorrect as most Google info is about this car.

N12 & N14: Yellow marked connector attaches to oil pressure switch.

N16 & N18: Oil pressure switch is on or near the oil filter housing.

Yep. Oil pressure switch on the N12. On the N16 there's a plug in that hole.
