Thumbs up 86.5 Auto, 2 Sensors on Bell Housing?

Need an elementary assist as I prep for parts coming in tomorrow...today's day off to resolve 928 concerns didn't pan out.

1986.5 Auto- I was under the impression that it had a single TDC/Reference sensor to trigger the LH, and no/0 knock sensors.

I see two possible sensors on the top of the bellhousing/back of the block.

Can someone enlighten me as to the correct identification for each and which is which?

1986.5, Auto.

Couldn't conjuer the right search terms to get me a previous pic, or to locate it on one of the online schematics.

Thank you!

There is a Flywheel sensor (on the block)
There is a test sensor (on the bellhousing) that mirrors the signal to the 'test port' that is attached to the Pipeorgan.

I ripped my test sensor when I removed my bellhousing and was in panic mode before realizing the bellhousing sensor is not essential .

Oh, I hope you're coming to the Frenzy this weekend!

Electrons travel fast within the vicinity!

Thanks DC! Keep your fingers crossed for me

Hope my precautionary order was for the right one!

That's right the sensor on the Bell housing is not needed and not used, it was for a no longer available test device. Not even sure what it was called.
