Hi all, I have the car listed above GL with the Vulcan 3.0 ohv v6. The pipe the coolant temperature sensor screws into broke and I can't find the name of the part anywhere nor can I find the part. Does anyone have any ideas?

That is called the heater pipe extension fitting. Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
