Uhh.. I'm pretty sure that's the Air Intake temp sensor, not the mass air..

youll need some tamper proof torx bits to get the MAF sensor out though, ttamper proof bits are like $20 you can clean it without taking it out though, just dont touch it with your finger, spray it down really good and dont worry about whiping it, the cleaner should evaporate.
