It's not going to be in the same spot on all 3VZEs. So to find it, you'll have to know what it looks like.

This is what the coolant temp sender looks like.


This is what the coolant temp sensor looks like.


In the pic below the coolant temp sender is the one on the far left, which may or may not be where it is on yours. The coolant temp sensor(not shown)would be in the open hole. The one in the middle(black top) is the cold start injector time switch. The coolant temp switch is circled in red. The one on the far right is the TVV/BVSV for the EVAP.
