I think that's the TPS sensor location, seeing as the inner parts of that will be moving when you open and close the butterfly.

It sure looks like there are two screw locations there to me . If you're having trouble moving sensors around, just swap the entire throttle body and be done with it.

You may have to recalibrate the tps when you switch it over, you're better off just swapping the entire tb
