Different Guy
and
A nicer looking one at that! Lol!
I've spent about an hour looking for the part
No Luck thus far
Not knowing the thread types and sizes for the sender and the housing the pic was vague
I did pull up several Google searches and hit "Images"
You reckon another application might screw in and even if it's shaped differently just might work?
Here's one example
https://www.google.com/search?q=F452-18599-A&espv=2&biw=1366&bih=643&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjyxNzgpdXNAhWDKCYKHQqZBSwQ_AUIBigB#tbm=isch&q=Ford+part+number+F452-18599-A&imgrc=e_yX_Y0vb1UPeM%3A
The only other option I can add would be to hit an auto salvage yard.
