Question about installing Oil Temp sensor

Ok, I have been doing some search but can't find the hole for the sensor. This is where I mount my sensor. Is it wrong??

I took the pic from VEISystem to show you guys. According to VEI System, this hole is used for Oil Pressure??

My oil temp sensor replaces my oil drain bolt located in the oil pan. As for the oil pressure sender im not exactly sure which hole it ties into however i know for a fact that my oil pressure sender is attached right in that area near the oil filter. Im sure someone on here could give you the exact location for the oil pressure though. good luck

Important - * Make sure you verify the thread pitch of your current oil temp sensor! It's a 1/8'' Pipe Thread, but it could be BSPT or NPT. British Standard Pipe Thread is different than National Pipe Thread. You may need this adapter located in the link above. Trust me, 1/8 NPT is either 23 or 24 threads per inch while the BSPT is the opposite. It may start to thread in, but you'll screw up the threads real bad if not the correct one!*

yes, that is where you would hook up a oil pressure sensor. oil temp goes to the drain plug. (at least thats the most common place to put it.

and yes you can also install the temp sensor there, but again, drain plug is the most common.
