Cant find Oil Pressure Sender

My 82 Berlinetta does a lot of sitting, Bringing it out of mothballs the oil pressure gauge is barely reading. I'm pretty certain that its a big fat liar and i have a bad sender or bad connections. Problem is that I cant find the stinking sender. From what I can tell its supposed to be next to the oil filter. I have nothing there.

oil sender unit? where is it?
Where else would the thing be located?

Top of block in front of the bell housing flange, behind the intake manifold, sort of up under the distributor, a bit toward the driver's side.

Not really, pretty easy to get to actually. You'll see. Same place they had been put since 1955,.
