Its a Hall Effect Angle Sensor made by TT Electronics. You should have a part number on there somewhere beginning with "9". It isn't a Vauxhall part number .. but a TT Part number
Not having one here I cannot look to confirm.
This is what it looks like when you take it off:

They jam apparently. If you take it off can you move the spindle it attaches to. If not I would free off the other end and see if it rotates. If that all moves as it should then I would see if the sensor can be made to move with some gentle persuasion perhaps with a little WD40/carb cleaner.
This place sells ones like it, but the input bit is different. They may be able to help:
