Coolant and Oil guages

Neither my coolant or Oil pressure guage are working and need to be replace. Thats were the problem lies. I don not know exactly were they are. The coolant sender is on the drivers side cylinder block between #1 and #3 but where is the Oil pressure guage? Is it next to the distributor, or is it in front of the cylinder block? What guages are those that are next to the distributor and in front of the starter? Sorry about such a long response. Thanks for any help...

i think your asking where the sending units are. most oil pressure sending units are behind the distributor, although, i dont know if there is another place. my water temp sending unit is on the front drivers side part of my intake manifold, but im runing a edelbrock intake. im not positive if the sending unit between 1 and 3 is water but my educated guess is yes.

What I meant to ask is what sensor is located in the engine block in front of the starter on the passenger side? Is this the oil pressure sending unit? Or is the oil pressure sending unit located next to the distributor?

That's the knock sensor. The oil sender is where you describe, on the back of the block.
