So now I'm a bit confused. Do people refer to the ICP as the high pressure oil sensor AS WELL AS the exhaust back pressure sensor? The EBP sensor is what I disconnected, for sure now that I'm looking at the different sensors. Also, the stupid little 'can' that has holes in it, just below the alternator on the driver's side (horrible description I know) is making more noise than I remember. I would say it's 'putt putting'. I can put my hand over it and cover all the holes and feel pressure, but not a ton of pressure, if this means anything whatsoever.

Kinda sounds like a bad IPR.
I'd leave the ICP unplugged and drive it for a couple days and see what happens.

Will do! But...now which one is it?! Would the EBP sensor cause it to act this way? Because it turns out, THAT is the one I disconnected...

Is this which you disconnected?

Here is what I disconnected. It's on the fuel rail, driver's side front, on the inside of the rail close to the fuel bowl.

Holy crap! Or is it this one? Jeesh. They all look almost identical...perhaps it's because they are? No idea.

EBPV is in the back under the turbo area. I don't think that is what you disconnected.

The thing with holes up front is the vacuum pump and it operates the brake booster, the switches for your heater and a few other things I suppose. If you can switch between vent and defrost and the other settings and it moves along ok AND if you have good brake boost pressure, then I wouldn't worry much about it. It costs about $100 to replace and takes about 30 minutes unless you drop something or have trouble getting pulley off/on. More than likely you will feel it in your brakes and that will be the reason you decide to change it out. Until then, if it is just makin a little noise, I'd let it. Just my lazy/cheap .02 though

Actually the EBPV is in the back, BUT the EPVS (sensor) is in the front close to the HPOP in some models in front and other behind.

Here are a couple of pics of the EBP sensor in back and in the front of the HPOP.
