What sender for oil pressure gauge

Trying to finally start my 1987 Iroc-z. The car is a 305 TPI converted to carb by previous owner. I’m trying to see which sender is for the pressure gauge. The motor had the one by the oil filter and the distributor. The plug for the sender by the filter is still there but I do not see one for the one near the distributor. Thanks in advance !

Re: What sender for oil pressure gauge

On the cars with two senders the one by the distributor is for the gauge. I am not near my service manual but I would assume the one by the oil filter has some control over the fuel pump relay and LOP warning lamp.
