Default guys, is this a crank position sensor on my engine?

just strarted to paint my engine, and noticed this little chappy

Is this a crank position sensor? And does this mean that when i one day convert to EFI my life will be alot easier? Im guessing my engine block started life in a fiesta turbo?

Oh, and also, how do i tell if its fitted with an EFI flywheel?



all help greatfully recieved
cheers
Danny

When the Escort4 EFI was launched, most 1.6 CVH block got the hole for the CPS. Also non-CPS engines like the ERST
