Small rear engine sensor

While investigating my coolant re-route options i was curious to know what part this little sensor is used for?
It looks like it senses water or temp but cant find it in my detailed manual.

It's the coolant sensor for the ECU

Yea SLYDIT got it, it's just for the gauge, the ecu one is the larger one with the square green plug.

isnt the ecu one on the rear housing?

Yep thats it, in this pic here

The blue arrow is the gauge sensor, the big green square sensor is the ecu one,

The little grey one on the thermostat housing on the front of the motor is just the fan switch.
