Gen 3 to 4 swap. What Oil Pressure Sensor?

Thanks for all the help guys!
I should have everything else needed, or at least have it ordered. So far I have gen 4 timing cover, valley cover, cam/crank sensor extensions and gaskets/seals at home. Still waiting on cam sensor (back ordered), but I may have to get a cam timing gear too. I cant remember whats in there now but I know its either for 1x or 4x. A little back story. Back in November I put a junkyard LQ9 in it with 799's and a small cam. After 3 months of messing with it I couldnt get rid of loud passenger side valve train noise and a slight knock so I decided to get a short block built. Only problem with that is no one has gen 3 blocks laying around so I had to go with gen 4. Once the swap is done I'll get the LQ9 checked out and see about building or selling it.
Gen 4 motor is being built with 24x reluctor so I'm good there. I also heard a few people had issues with the box as well. Some the box just crapped out and another had issues from water intrusion. For me it was enough that I'm willing to wait 6 weeks to have a motor built with a 24x vs getting one on the shelf ready to go with a 58x.

Stock gauges still work fine in the turbo trucks i build for folks. It just uses the stock PCM to send the signals to cluster. Holley just controls the important stuff haha
