Snapped sensor (?) under oil filter.

So I'm wrestling the oil filter out today on my 1994 pickup (2wd) and I here a snap, lo and behold I broke something. To be quite honest I don't exactly know what it is either, it looks like maybe a ground or a sensor? It's right below the filter. It goes into a wire bundle, so my questions are:
1. What is it?
2. How to replace it
3. Is it ok to drive with it broken?

Help?
