Default Oops...broke a sensor, help!

So in the process of changing my alternator and power steering belts, I accidentally broke a sensor at the plug and I'm now seeing the CEL, VSC and Trac Off lights on.

Can someone tell me what sensor this is so I can replace it? You can see it on the bottom left corner of this pic:

Not a sensor. It's a VVT Oil Control Valve.
