I am trying to make a money wars mini-game, and to upgrade the generators, you throw a certain ingot on the generator block, and then it upgrades it. I know you can put:
/testfor @e[type=Item] {Item:{id:whatever id}}
But where would I put the X Y Z coordinates?
You'll need a redstone clock with a command block as shown below:
In the command block add the command /testfor @a[x=400,y=4,z=Z,r=600] and start up your clock. When ever a user is at that location, the red output line as shown in the picture will power. Once they have left the position, the output will power off.
When you place a named block, it loses its name tag, making it impossible to detect if it was ever named. What you can do, however, is set a custom data value:
/setblock ~ ~ ~ diamond_block 1
Then, replace detect ~ ~-1 ~ diamond_block 0 with diamond_block 1. You can use values 1 through 15, but values above 15 are not supported.
Note: In some versions of the game (and possibly the latest updates), blocks with custom data may have a missing texture, and the custom data may not be saved properly. You'll have to look into this yourself as I can't test it at the moment.

This syntax should work:
Where
ais the x co-ordinate,bis the y co-ordinate, andcis the z co-ordinate. Note that ther=1radius attribute is necessary to detect all items in the 1-block area, instead of only detecting items at that exact co-ordinate.Example:
