what sensor is it

I recently got a 1990 f150 4x4 5.0 AOD given to me. It runs pretty good. After I got the pcv valve fixed. But I saw a sensor that looks like a temp sensor between the front 2 injectors on the left side and it is broken. What sensor is it? Just to let you know I am new to efi motors and 150s. I use to 8 lugs and oil for fuel. But not new to fords.

Sounds like the ACT sensor to me.

+1 I'd say that is the Intake Air Temp(IAT) sensor which is also sometimes called the Air Charge Temp(ACT) sensor.
