Yes, that’s it. This is apparently the “white” oil pressure sensor. It is not loose and drips when the engine is running.

I’m assuming you mean the horizontal sensor low down on the side of the block (oil pressure) not the vertical sensor behind the pulley (oil temp).  This can be accessed by temporarily moving the PS pump to one side. It would only leak if the engine was running so it is possible the oil had leaked and pooled on the block.

I come home and I have big puddle in the drive way. The oil leak is localized to be right next to the radiator at the bottom of the engine block where a single wire connects to a sensor that screws into the engine. There is a white rubber cover over the single wire. 

Any BTDTs?
