How To Oil Temp Sensor location

Oil Temp Sensor location
Hi all!
I have installed a water temp sensor, a boost sensor, an oil pressure sensor and to complete my 4 custom 3D printed pods, i need an oil temp sensor. (lol its not to complete the set, but to get the data really - whom am i kidding, i like the gauges!)
I am reading different opinions. Some install it at
- the location of the oil pressure
- the oil sump plug
- the oil sump pan (they tap the pan)
- the oil filter housing (they tap the housing)
my question is: where to put it? If i will get correct readings at the oil pressure sensor, i will use the adapter i used for the oil pressure with some modifications cause the temp sensor is long and thats it. If not where? I do not want to put it at the sump plug cause its a mcs r56 AC Schnitzer, and its really low. I even thought to install an oil radiator and get the temp out of there.
I will make a DIY thread with all sensors and gauges once im finished.
Whats your opinion??
