1971 302 Oil Pressure Gauge Mounting

[MikeGriese]

I am in the process of getting my '71 302 ready for the engine dyno.  I'm adding the center gauge cluster to my car, and the car that the engine came from (another '71 Convertible built within 2 weeks of mine - holy date codes Batman!) did not have gauges, which means it did not have the sender for the gauge.  The OEM sender just doesn't fit at the block - the fuel pump and oil filter are in the way.  Obviously Ford used some kind of offset pipe/extender to mount the sender, but I can't find it in any of the parts manuals I have.  Any help?

Do a Google search for pics and search and this is pretty common setup.  My 69 302 is identical.
