There should be a two hex beside the oil filter, you should install it there.

You got it

. Except one is a hex which you probably will need a 90 elbow for the sensor becouse of the axle. But the other one is a allen wrench bolt that is perfect and no elbows needed. GIve it a try.

Use a 8mm allen tool to remove one the two 8mm plugs located near to the oil filter. Use that for your sending unit.
