Oil pressure switch unplugged/ connector missing!

As the title says, today I just found out that my oil pressure switch (sending unit for low oil pressure dummy light) was unplugged, the sensor right above the oil filter. I also realized the connector itself was missing and the connector on the sub-engine wire harness is missing too for that connector.

On the sensor, all I see is a cable with two wires at the end of it instead of a connector.

Does anyone knows where is the connector on the wire harness to that sensor?
Anybody done a recent oil change recently?
I've looked into a service manual pdf, and it says it is connected to the main engine wire harness.

Because of that, I now realized why I don't have have the "Low oil pressure light" on my dash.

Thanks

its probably an aftermarket sensor for an oil pressure gauge someone had in it before you possibly.

Still, there should be a connector for it on the engine wire harness where that sensor connector is plugged in.
Any idea where?
I think it can be easily seen when replacing oil filter during oil change.
