Water temp sensor help.

Hello,
i'm fairly new so plz take it easy on the noob. Anyways i was changing my oil earlier today and everything went well. except when i got into my s13 i noticed that my water temp gauge was reading zero. I am almost for certain i hit a wire or something while taking the oil filter off ( intake manifold side) But from the pic i give can anyone figure out where my water temp sensor is located? thanks alot for the help guys.

The factory one is near the oil filter kinda, but the pic shows that you also have a sensor in the upper water neck right behind the CAS (cam angle sensor)

Are you talking about the temp gauge on the factory instrument cluster or do you also have an aftermarket gauge?
