4ALC oil pressure switch- where is this thing?!?!?!?! help please!!!

I have a flickering oil light since I washed my engine. The light flashes on and off while I go over rough roads (my city has crappy roads). Due to this reasoning, I believe that it's not an actual oil problem, just the switch has become detached from the wire and I believe it's probably bouncing around somewhere under the hood

HELP PLEASE!!!!!!

First, check your oil level anyway.
Then the sensor is a signle wire on the engine block. Most likely facing the front.
