A photo probably would have gotten you an answer, or shock market it is from or mentioning that it is a v8 and not a 300tdi. It is probably an odb diagnostic plug.

an early model (pre 96) cant be OBD it is abs for the "sack" a diagnostic tool. The beneath the seat position leads me to believe ABS becuase OBD has to be (pre 1996) in easy reach of driver. The OBD II has to be positioned beneath dash on drivers side (federal mandate) scott
