It doesn't seem such a stupid question, I'd assume it would be around the filter location but who knows?
If the car is your daily driver you would need to know if it is a switch or something more ominous, the time for an ebay manual to arrive could be crucial, can someone release this information?

I know little about the sender on the 3.0 but it's probably there. I wouldn't fancy trying to test it and its wiring without the workshop manual including circuit diagrams, but maybe that's just me. I'd find a competent tech or wait. (Actually, I made sure to get the workshop manual before I even bought the car!)

dperry, this diagram is for a 2005, hope this helps. Sorry for the small pic I don't know how to enlarge but its #4 sensor pictured next to the oil filter, the sensor itself is located near the drivers front side engine.
