Default What's this thing-a-ma-bob?

'98 Civic EX: standing at the passenger front wheel looking towards the distributor cap. Under the distrib from left to right: Left-coolant outlet for the heater hose, Middle-the thing-a-ma-bob in question (long, thin "nipple" for an electrical connection), Right-another electrical connection. What are the 2 electrical connections? Camshaft sensor? Oil pressure sending unit? Thanks!
