No, It is screwed into the top of the head, between the intake port, and the exhaust port. You can see it from under the car right above the valve cover. BTW, I put the color '72 wiring diagrams up on my gallery. It is 2 pages, because it is fan fold. And it is not too good, because I didn't want to break the binding on my "rare" early Bentley. http://classicvw.org/gallery/partsbook/72wiring http://classicvw.org/gallery/partsbook/72wiring_001 Those are 360K pictures when zoomed completely.
