Greetings
I didn't post this in the tuning or performance category as this is more of a safety thing than anything else.
As some of you might know, I've had some cold start oil pressure/OFH issues. Just to be safe I would like to add a oil pressure (and also temperature, in case I'll ever take this car to the track) gauge inside my car. My question: what is the best/safest way to install these sensors?
There are aftermarket oil filter caps with 2 ports on top to screw in sensors. Example:

The thing that holds me back is: in case this isn't 100% accurate or fits 100%, the oil might drain back down the engine block because it won't hold pressure (in case these 2 o-rings don't seal 100%). On the plus side, this is plug & play and I can add the additional sensors right away.
Other than that, are there other ways? I could put a T piece at the oil pressure warning light sensor at the back of the OFH, but there's very little room. Any suggestions?
