I think my electronic oil pressure gage is acting up. To verify I would like to add a mechanical O/P gage in the engine compartment. Where is the oil pressure port location on the engine?

AD I think you missed in the title where it says 3.0.

The oil pressure sender is on the lower part of the block on the starboard side between the starter and fuel pump.
It uses a 1/8" NPT thread. You can install a tee if there isn't one already so you can run both.
