This is for an NOS Mercedes crank/tach pickup sensor made in Germany. This was made by Hella for Mercedes. Whenever Mercedes discontinues a part like this any outstanding/unsold parts can still be sold by the manufacturer(Hella) as long as the Mercedes Star logo is removed. This was the final version of this part with the black rubber plug-in. Earlier versions had a clear silicone plug-in that would tend to age quickly and eventually turn yellow and crumble after exposure to an engine compartment. The black rubber does not suffer from this problem. Note that while a mechanic's 'book time' to install this part on a W123 takes several hours I found a post online years ago that shows how to replace this part in about 15 minutes.
