Hi Guest !
Welcome to the 500Eboard forum.

We invite you to browse and take advantage of the information and resources here on the site.

Need Help Identifying A Part

That is the electrical connector on the engine wiring harness. The plastic connector is available separately, if the existing one is brittle. P/N: 012-545-04-28
It connects to the intake cam advance solenoid / magnet, which often leaks from the area around the connector as they age. Search the forum for info on re-sealing these, or you can replace them if desired. Be careful if buying replacements, the originals are a 104- part number that cost more; there are 119- p/n replacements which cost less but require the armature to be replaced at the same time.
EDIT: It appears the original 104-050-01-77 magnet is NLA, replaced by the newer version 119-051-00-77, which requires new style armature 111-051-00-43.
