That is your air charge sensor... has nothing to do with any fluids, and runs about 25-30 bucks usually.

That is the MAP Sensor, and what type of fluid, it could have that stuff that prevents corrorsion.

Just plug it in, don't mess with it, and definitely don't put fluids on it.

Just clean it out with carb cleaner or something...they get crud on it overtime (blowby etc) -- it's normal. Just clean it up and put it back in, no need to really replace it unless it's physically damaged.
