I need to test the oil pressure. How/where do I fit a pressure gauge to test oil pressure?

Hello, I am Danny.

I would suggest using the oil pressure switch as a location (picture attached). You might have to use a threaded pipe fitting to mate oil pressure gauge to proper thread size, but that is best location to get a reading. Hope this helps and feel free to ask any questions if needed. Thanks for using 2CarPros.
