What is the component that has a leak?

I'm new to this forum and also a new owner of a Liberty 2006. When replacing the transmission oil cooling line I noticed a small leak in the component shown in the image but I’m not able to identify what it is.

I initially thought it was some type of sensor but these seem to have a different type of mount. Any help in identifying the component that is leaking is appreciated.

Thanks.

What engine and transmission does your KJ have? This doesn't look familiar to me at all.

You have an oil leak coming from above somewhere, spray with degreaser, hose it down, then after running it follow it back to where it is coming from

I think I found the same component in another image (same engine 3.7L). I have also thought about whether the leak comes from above somewhere but it does not look like that.

If that is where you are seeing oil, that component is just a stud to pick up a ground for the engine harness.
I’d be thinking maybe from the oil filler or valve cover

As DadOSix mentioned, it's a ground stud. It does not go through into the block, so there's no way it can leak.

What condition is your PCV valve in? If it's old or clogged it can slowly leak oil, and it's located straight above that stud.
