I was thinking it was an O2 sensor.

First guess is bung for an oxy sensor in a header tube.
2nd and wierd guess is sparker to make flames shoot out of the pipes.

What would be the point of the O2 senser
Integral part of the TBI system. It monitors the exhaust gases to regulate the fuel delivery. It helps regulate the air/fuel mixture.
Need it to run fuel injection

i have an aftermarket bung and sensor on my carb'd truck that runs a air/fuel mixture gauge. it was installed by a past owner and i'm not sure how accurate it is. it fluctuates when cold to warm and when you stomp the gas and when you let out of it.
i richened and leaned my carb adjustments(just to see),and it showed it on the gauge, but i pay very little attention to the gauge.

Fuel injection computers use it to monitor the air/fuel ratio to make small corrections on the base air/fuel map that is in the ECU. Some people hook these (1 wire narrowband oxygen sensors) up to aftermarket gauges to try and tune with, but without getting a true wideband oxygen sensor system, it is basically pointless.
