On the top of the part is "466". Elsewhere on the unit are the numbers "012 8260".

(my fault for not adding before

Re: Is this a 3 bar MAP (98civicEX)

It's most likely a 2 Bar MAP. Most GM MAP sensors all look the same. GM uses them on most of their turbo cars as well. Unless that car boosts over 14.5psi stock then it's got no need for a 3 bar MAP. The fabled 3 Bar MAP sensor only comes on one GM car stock -- The 89 Turbo Trans AM, which ran 16.5psi from the factory.
