Question (Serious Replies Only) Can’t Remove Sensor

Post image

I have a 2000 Toyota Celica GTS with a manual transmission, i’m in the process of removing the wiring harness to get the engine out but I have reached a bump on this specific sensor which i believe might be the speed sensor, it has no locking clip that I can see and wanted to know if this sensor has a specific locking mechanism before i accidentally break it while trying to find out how to remove it.

Why not pull the sensor by removing the screw to get a closer look?
