Thats a nice piece. Why are you using 6 AN, usually one would run 8 for oil lines?

Oil Pressure Relief Plug Sensor Location

From Rob & Dave's Aircooled VW Pages....

•Oil Pressure Relief Plug Sensor. If your engine is equipped with a dual oil pressure relief system, you can install an oil temperature in the plug at the rear (pulley end) of the engine - the oil pressure relief valve (NOT in the oil pressure control valve at the front (flywheel end) of the engine). When installed as the plug in the oil pressure relief valve, the sensor will be picking up the oil directly from the sump so it will be measuring the temperature in the bulk of the oil - as it leaves the sump. Placing the temperature sensor at the flywheel end of the engine (oil pressure control valve) would mean the oil has picked up heat direct from the crankcase which might be higher than the sump temperature - less representative of the bulk of the oil. If your engine does not have a dual relief system, you will have to install the oil temperature sensor in a hole you drill and tap in the oil sump plate.
