1962 oil pressure sending unit

[Roger Z.]

Can someone explain or send me to a site that would identify this unit

Roger,
Not exactly sure what you're asking about. There is no such thing as an oil pressure sending unit. There is a copper plated steel line that runs from the engine block to the back of the oil pressure gauge...that's it.

Roger, I am attaching pictures of what Leif is explaining. If stock, you should have a hard line that is approximately 1/8 inch in diameter that connects directly to the engine block near the distributor then runs through a grommet in the firewall and then to the oil pressure gauge. Hope this helps, Frank
