What would this be called and any suggestions about getting it off or replacing?

3/32 is .0938", whereas 2.5 mm is .0984" so if it's really a 3/32 hex, it's not surprising that you had to tap it in. A tighter fit is safer for not rounding it out though, especially if you aren't planning to reuse the screw.

That's the pin that I mentioned. Put the screws back into the same holes they came out of. I think they align with the holes for this pin.

I broke the tip off what I believe to be the screw that went in the hole. Think autozone might carry something like this?

They may. It wouldn't hurt to check. I'll bet you're right about the screw locations. Just make sure that you put this piece back exactly how it came off. If you don't, I doubt that you could get the FIPL back into specs and your transmission won't shift right.

Yeah that's what I was so worried about. I think I got it lined up right. I looked up some pics even though I didnt get much. I lined up the hole with the screw with the broke off pin. And the sensor brackets lined up with the screws from the impression on the brackets from the washers from when it was screwed on the old one
