that part is the piezo sensing element - there is a piezoelectric ceramic material encasing a pair of conductors. It usually looks like a flat wire or a teeny tiny piece of coax.

They are very inexpensive but quality varies wildly.

You can pick one up at any parts store like parts plus or stewart mcdonald
