It's the arm/tube that attaches to the pump itself & draws oil from pan & falls of sometimes because is only a press fit on many engines.

Depending on the engine: (According to Haynes Repair Manual) 3.0L - the oil pump is located in the oil pan. You'll have to remove the oil pan, then the oil pump mounting bolt. Lower and remove the oil pump assembly (the oil pump intermediate shaft will come down with the pump). 3.8L - The oil pump is mounted in the oil pump cover/oil filter adapter. The oil pump intermediate shaft is mounted to the timing chain by a clip (I have a 3.0L, so I haven't seen this). You'll have to remove the oil filter, then the oil cooler assembly. Remove the oil pump/oil filter adapter from the front cover (inspect the oil pump gear pocket). Remove the oil pan, the pickup tube bracket nut, and two mounting bolts to remove the oil pump pickup, then lower and remove the pickup. This is probably more info than you wanted, but there you go.

An oil pump? wow..not really a do it yourselfer type job. If you are loosing oil pressure, that may be due to a bad crankshaft, bad engine, or a plugged up oil pickup in the oil pan. The oil pump is right where the oil pickup connects to in the oil pan. Good luck
