CASE 580B OIL PRESSURE GAUGE

[tomcase580b]

Hey all, could anyone tell me where the tap / sending unit is on the engine block of a case 580b for the oil pressure gauge.
my gauge was disconnected when i bought the machine years ago...I'm just now getting around to fixing all the little annoying issues like non working gauges. The copper tube has been disconnected at bothe the gauge and the engine, so it;s just hanging out. Not sure how they plugged up the old one, but if someone could take a picture of theirs, i might be able to get a better idea of what i need to do.

I know some people disconnect these things when they go to sell them to hide issues, but my machine has been running awesome for the 4 years i own it...

Thanks in advance

Tom
