Default what sensor is located on the airbox?

My brother and I are reinstalling a rebuilt engine on my 2001 grand cherokee, we have it all pretty much together, however we somehow mannaged to lose the airbox. I'm pretty sure there is a sensor connected to the airbox, is it the Mass Air Flow sensor? If not, wtf is it? thanks for the help.

Some have a breather line that is connected to the air-box, but there's no sensor on the air-box itself. Which engine?

That engine doesn't use a MASS air system. The TPS & IAC are on the drivers side of the throttle body, the IAT is there right below the others, the MAP sensor is at the front of the intake, and the PCV is on the pass. side front at the oil-fill.
