Go to my first and second pic and scroll in. You will see the oil pressure sensor on the left and the cps on the right. If you still need another pic let me know I will take another

Did you replace the whole sensor or just the o ring? Where could I find the original, I don't need to replace the entire sensor as it works fine and I don't want to possibly have to have dealer reset it or whatever

I had a o-ring kit and just replaced the o-ring. It looked ok but I replaced it anyway. I also put a small amount of silicone around the top where it bolts. The is no seal there or any gasket and that's the only place I think it could have been comming from.
My opinion is leave your o-ring and clean the mounting surface and try a bit of silicone. I wouldn't put a lot incase you ever need to change it. If you had too much you will probably have to take your intake off to replace it next time.

Nut and bolt supply store. Or Napa,pep boys. Start with that. We have different part store here so I am not sure what you guys have around you. But I love close to the border and cross often. I have seen these stores. Last place to check maybe the dealer. I had an assortment of them I had in my garage from other projects.

Any updates? My update is after cleaning around the sensors and all around the engine I think it comes down to the oil pan gasket. I've run out of time and leave for Florida on Saturday so I'll get back to it and swap that out when I return in 2 weeks. After that I'll post back hopefully my solution and last complaint about my leak. Fingers crossed.
