I am rebuilding my 1987 560SL and have a sensor I can not find a part number for. The sensor is located on the right (passenger) cylinder head toward the rear of the engine. The sensor I removed is VDO. I can easily find the water temp sensors, but not this one. Anyone know the part number for this sensor?

I need to see a picture with a bigger context, but way at the back is the sensor for the temperature gauge on the dash. This maybe that one.

Unfortunately this forum doesn't allow larger pics. The sensor appears to be a temperature sensor. It is the ONLY sensor on the right (passenger) cylinder head. It is located near the firewall (rear). In the picture it shows the valve cover (bottom left) and the rubber heater hose that is coming from the firewall. I can find the part number for the front temperature sensor, but not this rear one.
