What have i snapped while tryi g to remove the oil filter!?

[Austin-182]

First time this has ever happened!

Anyone know what this plug / sensor is? I have just snapped it while removing the oil filter.

Looks like it is screwed into the block but not sure how the other part removed from the plug side.

If you know what it is, do you know part number and if its genuine only?

Thanks in advance

Oil pressure switch.

Oil pressure switch.

Is that bad?

Not in the scheme of things.

Lol. Thanks...
Do i need to replace with genuine only?

Yea.

Although to be fair they're usually of little use, if the oil pressure drops low enough to set it off there's already a serious issue inside the engine.

All sorted now. Easy peasy to do just a pain when you need it there and then. Might get a spare for the next oil change just incase ha ha.

Thanks for the help
