Default ECT Sensor location??

I went out this morning too change the sensor and found there where two sensors by the thermostat. Both have 2 wires coming out of each. Looks very similar, not sure which to change? Anyone know which of the two is the ECT Sensor? I can't find any pictures on here or on the net anywhere to help. Thanks in advance!

the temp gauge sender is on the front of the manifold, whereas the EEC sender is a dry hole and uses cylinder head temp. Front, interior cylinder head, driver side. CHT is used because of the trucks "fail safe" cooling system.
