Default low oil pressure questions

I recently did a turbo swap for a fellow forum member and after reassembly the car is displaying the low oil pressure light. Where is this pressure sensor located? I pulled the oil pan to make sure there wasnt any debris clogging the pickup screen and there wasnt. Can anyone offer a good method to pin point where the problem is? Where could I hook up a oil pressure guage to get a good reading? and finally what type of sealent should i use when re-installing the pan

TIA

Default I'm pretty sure the sensor is just above the oil filter on the upper oil pan

The wire leading to the sensor can be in the way when the a/c compressor is removed during an engine pull.
