Message If your thermo plate search is just hanging up on the dual sensor port requirement there is room for a little fitting that mounts an aftermarket oil pressure gauge in between the stock sensor and the oil filter tree.

And then on the front side of the oil filter tree (or at least on mine, can't be sure for all years) there was a hole tapped for 1/8 BSP that just had a plug in it so I added a bushing and mounted my aftermarket oil temp sensor there. Had to bend the oil return line a bit but not a lot, ended up with less bend in it than the drivers side return had stock.
