Guys,i am really struggling to find the end of the sensor at the top of the engine,i have the car on an axle stand and have located the bottom of the sensor near the oil filter.Is there an easy way to locate this? I have removed the scuttle tray too,and although its tight i am still unable to locate the end.Any ideas please? :-?

2.5/3.0 both the same in this regard.The sensor is just beside the oil filter and the other end (connecting plug)is in the photo as mdtm has said.Make sure you route the sensor wiring as per the guide,rather than how it is originally routed.  :y
