Oil Temp Sending Unit

I am installing an aftermarket oil temp gauge and cannot find the correct wire to run the gauges correctly. There are 2 wires in the generic schematic for the 6.0 oil temp that I can find. (one pins the gauge @ 250 and the other reads 0) I cannot find a correct/detailed wiring diagrams for the 2006 6.0L.

Any ideas?

Z series 2638 or 2639 oil temp? Seems pretty straight forward unless your trying to tap into the existing sender which is not calibrated for the unit.
