Which plug to remove for my oil pressure sensor?

So I pulled this plug and put in a reducing bushing to fit an oil pressure sensor.

and then I noticed this other one on the bottom near the stock pressure sensor.

So now I'm wondering if it makes a difference which one I use. The one on the bottom would actually be an easier installation.

Either will work fine.

If you notice in the picture below, one of our members, Mavisky, uses the bottom port for the oil pressure regulator:

goodluck

You've gone and confused me good here. LOL

I see two oil cooler lines, a turbo feed line, some sort of sensor (the big brass bell thing), the oil pressure relief valve (which exists on the OPs housing, as well as all other 4G63 housings), and the oil cooler bypass valve. What am I missing?
 
sorry about that, late night

I meant oil pressure sensor, in all honestly now that i look at it more, it looks like an aftermarket pressure sensor (that bell thing ofcourse).

Like I said before, OP, there is no difference, you are good to use that any of the two plugs you mentioned.
 
Thanks I figured as much but wanted to be sure. I searched a lot of posts and all the pic's I could find had OFH's that were always in some way different from mine.
So then I'll go with the bottom one since the front would required extending the new sensor out a bit to clear the turbo oil feed connector.
