Sending units

I need to get new gauges in this thing, I have no oil pressure and the temp gauge moves up and down like a bad connection. Where are the sending units located and are there other places to hook up gauges? How about adding other gauges? Transmission temp and I read that some like an exhaust temp....but that is with a turbo I believe.

oil pressure sender is top rear of block.
temp sensor is driver side front of head.
exhaust temp is not bad to have, turbo or not. that gets added to exhaust manifold.
trans temp i dont bother with.
some people feel it is a must have though.

Thanks, I haven't taken the house off this thing yet and looking in thru the little hood is daunting. I am hoping I am better able to get to the fuel filter from inside.....
