Reinstalling high pinion and noticed this little fella leaking away. Any idea what it is and is it an outing issue?

Hard to tell without a little more reference but I'd guess oil level sensor. Mine leaks a little.
drivers side, bottom rear of block directly over pan, leaking away. And I hate leaks.
 
Really easy to replace the o ring. No need to drain the oil.
 
Be prepared for the connector to break when you disconnect it. It's easy to replace. The o ring is flat and not a normal o ring. It's probably a hard and crusted on to the sensor. I had to use a pic to remove the old one. I'm pretty positive the sensor is held in place with 4 8mm bolts. They take very little torque.
