You may recall that a backwards gear caused all kinds of damage to my engine

It's getting closer. I blocked off the oil pressure sender for the gauge at the front of the engine and got a sender for the top location with two leads. One is for the green light. The sender in the front was prone to leaking.

Sorry to be pain but what was the cause of your issues,was it miss aligned chain sprockets off the cams ??,couldn't tell from the pic .
Good move on the sender,they work well,less crap hanging of the case in my situation and one less leak,worst overheat issue was 12psi for me @ idle,the switch on mine comes on @ 10psi tested.
Cheers.
