300tdi EGR sensor thread

[superstator]

Anybody know the thread for the EGR sensor in the head on a 300tdi? Not the one up front, but the one back by cylinder 3, between the manifold and rocker cover. Looks like 5/8 NPT, maybe? I need to find something to blank it off with...

Why not just leave the sensor there? I've left mine in and not connected for the last several years.

I'd love to, but I don't have it. I think the machine shop pulled it when the head was rebuilt, and I never got it back. Or maybe I lost it all by myself, who knows. Either way, I need something to plug the hole.

Man, that was a pain to track down. OE part # is ERR2081, and according to this (https://spareto.com/oe/rover-err2081) it's interchangeable with a number of similar senders, all m12x1.5.
