If its an LW engine then the oil pressure line from the filter back to the engine (on the non flywheel side of the filter) should have a tapping for a pressure gauge. My parts manual suggests this is 1/4 BSP and should be fitted with a 1/4 BSP male to female adaptor with a 0.020" hole (restrictor). This is from a manual circa 1971, so reasonably late on.

 

You may well need an adaptor as senders tend to be 1/8 BSP or NPT.

 

If you can post a picture of the filter and pipework the ollective knowledge on here can probably help more.
