What is this sensor? Or part?

2012 S. This is rear center lower part of long block (engine). I thought ping sensor but looks different. Has a bushing(?) inside it which was leaking oil.
Thanks in advance for help.

Looks kinda near where the crank
position sensor is but looks nothing
like that part.
Definitely not the knock (ping) sensor
nor the Vanos solenoid.
Could it be an engine block heater?

Sensor

I wanna say it’s not a sensor but a way to get the wiring through the block to the oil pump. I pulled my oil pan off and the oil pump wiring goes up inside the block and exits right there.
