oil leak

I have a 1986 900 SPG and have a problem with a bad oil leak - the oil is coming from what appears to be a broken sensor/switch of some kind. There's a tube like device on the right side of the gear case about 2" back from the clutch end of the case and up about 5 " from the bottom of the case. Oil drips heavily from this "tube"after the engine has been running. There's an electrical device of some kind hanging free in that area and I suspect it may be be the other half... there are two wires and a plastic clip fitting attached to a tube with a nylon disc inside the tube. Whatever this is, I think it's broken and I'm concerned that oil may be being pumped out when the car is driven. Hopefully someone can tell me what this is and what it does so I can replace it with a new unit.
I've looked through the manuals I have ( Bentley's 900 16v service manual and Haynes 900 repair manual ) and can't figure out what this is....
Thanks, guys..... Jim
