This was found below the oil spout. Any ideas what it is or where it goes?

That is the engine bay temp sensor that sets off the main cooling fan on the deck lid. There is a circular holder for it near by. It can only go in one place. Look see, you will find it.

Ryan,

There is a circle in the passenger side grill in the front bumper that it slips into. If you need me to take a pic for you, let me know.

You have the wrong sensor Edwin. This is not the external air temp sensor in the front bumper
