Default What is this?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/103626/enginepic.jpg"></center><p>So i have a problem with starting the engine warm. The consensus is coolant temp sensor. I went to investigate where it is and how hard it's going to be with my big hands when i notice something. Something is unpluggd and i haven't a clue what it is.

the image is not of my car but from the tech gallery but the circled connector is what is disconnected in my car.... what is it and should i connect it?

Circled one is the cam chain tensioner. Blue one is for the coolant temp sensor. Although it'd be nice to have a wider angled picture, as this close up makes it harder to tell what we're looking at.
