ect sensor housing

The ect sensor housing is cracked and leaking coolant. I have a 96 with a 351. The part is about one inch behind the thermostat and screws into the intake. Does anyone know where I can get one or what I can or should do?

I had to get one a couple of years ago and I think I bought it at one of the local chain parts houses.

I think that the junk yard will be my only option. The ford dealership said they were obsolete and there weren't any in their computer at all. I tried the local parts stores and they don't have it.

Does anyone know what this part is called? I can't find it ina any manual. It's right behind the thermostat on the manifold. It has the ect housed in it. It also has two hoses. One going to the heater and one to the throttle body.
