Oil pressure regulator and temp guage help please...

I was wondering if anyone knew where the oil pressure guage sending unit was located and how hard it is to change. My guage reads 60 from the time I start 'til the time I shut her down and this is what I think it may be. Also as a side question, has anyone one hooked up an oil temp guage, an if so, where is the easiest place to hook this into to read the temp. Thank you all very much for your help in advance.

The oil pressure sensor is on the back of the engine near the distributor. The easiest place to put a temp gauge is where the oil pressure switch is near the oil filter. But then your fuel pump wouldnt turn off if you had no oil pressure.
