Is anyone able to identify this part/line? 2012 Ford Explorer Limited has an oil leak and 'low oil pressure'. I believe I have narrowed the leak down to the part pictured, as this appears to be the highest point generating drips while the engine is idling.

I apologize for the quality of the pictures. It is the best I could get my phone to take in a tight space. The item in question is up above the oil filter. To the right of the oil filter if you were looking up at it from under the car with your legs pointing out the front and the top of your head pointing towards the trunk.

I think its the oil filter mount. The part that attaches to the block that the oil filter attaches too. There is also an oil cooler near that spot, if installed.
 






Hard to tell where that is.
Could it be the oil pressure sensor?
