Help Wanted in Identifying Senders

I have a 1986 series 4 converted to turbo.
Can anyone help in identifying the following devices fitted on the 13b engine but not wired in.
1/ At the rear of the oil filler neck where it joins the block behind the oil level stick, a brass hexagon shaped unit filled with a potting mixture with a single black wire coming out from it.
2/ At the rear of the engine underneath the adjusting bracket for the cruise control and throttle cables a round can unit about 1inch diameter and about 2 inches deep with two wires black/white a blue /white fitted with a connector.
Thanks for your help.

The one on the back side is the AIR SUPPLY VALVE. Its on hte whole just for power steering. When you turn the wheel left or right it opens. Now give us something thats hard to identify.
