It's the ignition reference sender (the black one # 077 905 381) that
leads to hard starting when the engine is hot. However, reportedly this
product is NLA. The Engine Speed Sender (the gray one # 077 905 381A)
supposedly is still available. They can replace eachother as long as you
plug the wiring connector into the appropriate spot for the location in
which you mount the sender. I used a gray to replace a black and put some
black electrical tape on the wiring to identify it as such.
