Default what is this plug? pic inside

Just built an LS VTEC and I have no idea what this plug is. It was on the B18A1 block when I got it so I left it on it, but do I need to plug anything into it?

no it's not. The knock sensor is black and did not come on the B18A1 I know where the knock sensor is.... Anyone else want to take a stab at it? Thanks for your guess though.

Might be easier to ask on the Integra forums since those motors are probably always discussed in there.
