Look for a solid green wire somewhere on the driver side, between the master cylinder and the engine. More than likely it fell off and is hanging somewhere or it fried on the exhaust manifold.

 

Guage sender is located between cyls 1&3. It is a brass device with a single male pin. As was said the wire is green and sort of slides on sideways. It's there somewhere, maybe hung up above a plug wire or as was stated COOKED.
