On a 98 4.0, at least, the sending unit (there is one) is the gizmo with two wires coming out located directly above the oil filter. Sorry no pic, no batteries in camera. If you got clumsy with the filter wrench you could knock it apart (ask me how I know)
Two wires on a plug type connector, leads into a threaded aluminum unit with a hex cut into it for use with a crescent wrench, right near oil filter. 30$.

You're fine with a K&N. Personally, I run a Napa Gold (as do many others) with no problems. It's a Wix brand filter (one of the best out there), with the Napa name on it. Runs me about $6 and some change.

Just stay away from Fram and you'll be fine.
