It plugs right into the black box thingy on the back of the block, below the intake manifold.
Almost impossible to remove from up top.
Have to remove the oil filter to have a decent shot at removing it, so your best bet is to change it at your next oil change.

Hope this helps!

if its original, there is a good chance it is stuck on there good and VERY VERY BRITTLE!!

spray some lubricating oil there and let it sit, then attempt to take it apart.
