It is not a thermocouple. It is a gas filled capillary tube. It should be inserted into the case 4".

Hey Jim, That tube is called a thermocouple. It senses the temperature in
the Evaporator to keep it above freezing the coils. It is about 10² long,
and should also be packed with a putty substance as far across and as
close to the coils as possible for most accurate operation. The coils are
back inside quite aways with is why it is as long as it is.
