Default Air Charge sensor....can't find replacement

the sensor is located in the lower intake on the driver side. My ACT sensor looks like the Coolant temp sensor, but its smaller and has a small threaded stud on the end where a wire boot slips over the stud, so theres NO wire connector for it. Ive checked auto zone, checker and 50 resto with no luck.

What you describe is the coolant temp gauge sending unit =

The ACT/IAT sensor is a 2-wire sensor =

the connector to the coolant temp sensor should be a 90 degree elbow

It has the threaded tip like in the first of Joel pics and it has the end tip of the second pic. Also, the boot it 90* like Mjr said. Anyone know where I can get one? thanks guys.
