I researched the part on ebay and it show not compatible. The part number I am looking for is for the gauge sender located between #1 and #3 cylinder head. Engine is a F code TPI.

I know, I had the same concern because it didn't say it was compatible, but it is and this is the correct replacement, 3/8" NPT with the collar tab. I have the same car with the same engine as you...
You can also read this thread, which led me to purchasing this one: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c4-general-discussion/3873063-1990-c4-temp-sender-for-dash-gauge-question.html#post1592982399
FYI: And after replacing mine, it still read the same temp as the old one. So what are your concerns with the temp at the gauge?
