1995 DTA408 (mechanical) turbo boost an oil temp sender locations.

Hello everyone,
I've been trying to find a fitting anywhere on the intake manifold to plumb in a manifold pressure gauge. I'd have thought there'd be a test plug somewhere but try as I might I'm just not finding one. The only fitting is a banjo type feeding manifold pressure to the injection pump aneroid diaphragm.
I'm also looking for a location to install a sender for engine oil temp and the only thing I can find is a 1/4" pipe plug located at the oil filter adapter.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I found the manifold pressure test plug on the aluminum pipe coming from the intercooler to the intake. Mystery is solved.
Any takers on an oil temp sender location?

My DT360 appears to have an extra plug where the oil line comes out for the turbo.thing is I don’t know where that is in the circuit. (Before or after cooler). I’m guessing the turbo oil would be right after the cooler.

Same on my 408. I agree on the assumption this would be oil coming out of the cooler to the filter (first stop from there being turbo and crankshaft) and not necessarily my first choice. I can use it if I have to and at least keep in mind the source of the information.
