Default 1996 F150 302 Coolant Snsr Housing/ Fitting

Guys. I just sprung a coolant leak in the metal tube that is screwed into the coolant sensor housing. After further inspection, it looks as though I will need to replace the housing as well along with the metal tube. This is the housing/ fitting that seats the coolant temp sensor an also supplies coolant to the throttle body. I would really like an OEM part but from research, it looks difficult to obtain.

Any recommendations?

If anyone needs more info, let me know. Any help is appreciated!

It is a 96 5.0.

Try LMC Truck Parts. They are a little pricey but they usually have what you need.

They are pricey. I was looking for a cheaper solution looks like I may have to bite the bullet on this one . I can't complain. It did last 18 years.....

Thanks for the reply.
