3rd vote for oil pressure sender. I think it's the only set of connectors with those big round rubber boots on them.

I gotta agree with FR on this........those two shielded wires connect directly to the back two terminals of the ejection seat trigger mechanism..........

Shhhh! Those are the two wires to power that electric supercharger\timebomb on the other post. With those wires attached, that motor will spin at well over 350K RPM, producing at least 3 bar of boost.
(right up until the turbo siezes up) All kidding aside, any clue as to whythere is a blockoff plate? It is a threaded fitting that holds the sensor - perhaps it could be removed and a proper sender installed. AFJuvat
