Coolant temperature sensor. There's 3 different ones availabele, make sure you get the right one.

They're listed below the oil pressure sensor on this page: http://mazdatrix.com/86-92Electrical-Engine.htm

Looks like the top mounting bolt for the AC/PS bracket. Unless someone has modified it, it does not go into the oil passage and if you aren't using these brackets, ignore it.

If you buy my injectors Ill tell you what it is! LOL it IS where what I refer to as a "double sided" thread bolt-stud its a bolt that threads into the block and then its a post that sticks out and you put the bracket on it and then put a nut over it to hold the bracket down.

Why do you have doubts? We can change terminology a bit and say it's for a threaded stud that holds the A/C bracket on the car if that helps. There. Doubts erased. If not.......see parts fische.
