Default Something broken... What is it??

I was changing tires, and noticed an arm of some sort on the rear passenger side that has broken off. There isn't one on the other side. It looks like it moves with the travel of the suspension.

Can anyone identify this part for me?




It looks like the previous owner loaded it up with some sort of glue to hold it in place. I'm guessing all I will need is a new connector clip.

Here is a closeup of the connection end:

That is the sensor for auto level headlight adjust. Looks like #18 or #20 here

AHA! You the man.... Thank you. I knew it couldn't be anything too crucial. I zip tied it in place while I was in there. That should hold me over until I get the new part.
