Bit hard to see what it is, it could be the level sensor for the coolant. I think the temp sensor is on the back of the pump.

Have a look at this link http://www.wankel.net/~krwright/files/manuals/parts_manuals/94

I have a water pump here and that part isn\'t in the housing. Have you got a separate water temp gauge in the car, looks like somebody has drilled and tapped a sensor into the housing. Have you tried tracing the cable in the car ?

What year car is it ??

Just checked on mine & I havent got that plug..... Have you got any after market HKS gauges or something???

This is what a stock one looks like in that general area:
The loose plug by the aulternator is for the airpump!!

My 91 manual engine doesnt have that hole either but i just bought a replacement engine from a 94 auto and was told that the water temp sensor would be missing and that hole is empty, so dont if later engines had the hole or just autos.

Hope thats of some help
