Question Oil pressure sensor

Sorry if the post exist. used the search dint find what i wanted to know.

So the question in hand is Oil Pressure Sensor.

1) Where is it at (location) pic if possible pls!

2) Normal pressure for the 13b to put out and where is the point to look out for problems ( to High / to Low )

3) Good aftermarket gauge for Oil pressure. ( with warning lights or accurate read )

car is a N/A s5 FC3s

?? Stock location is rear left (driver's) side of engine as I recall. Some aftermarket units are on the oil filter pedestal, but that is not stock.
