Need advice re: a/c compressor

Hopefully someone out there knows the answer to this question. On the OE a/c compressor, as it sits mounted to the motor, on the underside at the connections end (not pulley end) there is a brass fitting with a green glass insert, much like a 'sight glass.' What is this? What function does it serve? Is the part available? TIA

Can that part be purchased? If not, anybody got a dead Delphi compressor laying around from which they are willing to sell me this part?

Don't see a separate part number for that. If you don't have any luck with a used one we have Delphi and other brands HERE.
