Can Anyone Advise What This Sensor Is Please?

[fbson]

Ref the pic below, on my 2007 2.8 CRD there's a sensor at the point that the air intake pipe between the MAF sensor and the turbo inlet branches off to the oil seperator. I've been working towards changing the thermostat, and that sensor is leaking oil on top of the engine (a little). On removing the connector to the sensor the connector's full of oil too between its 2 contacts. Can anyone advise what the sensor is please, and if the oil is a problem?

Thanks!

Is really no one able to advise? I thought it might be obvious to someone who knows their stuff (clearly not me!)...

I'm going to prod this again, cos I can't believe no one knows..! Any thoughts?

Thoughts only. Never been in a bookies/lottery/raffle and don't have your year. If I was a punter I'd go for boost pressure/air intake temperature sensor.
