You are not going to find suitable access for either temperature sensor on the 6.0L Power Stroke.

Just a thought, but a bung might be able to be welded to a spare freeze plug and installed in the block.
As for an oil temp sensor, your only reasonable location will be the oil pan itself.
Both of these are a good idea; oil temp on these engines can be quite critical and the factory coolant temp gauge is a real joke.

Oil temperature sensor is directly in the top of the oil cooler, coolant temp sensor is mounted on the top of the water/oil pump housing on the front of the motor.
