94 E420-Oil Pressure Sender Location?

Folks,

At hot idle, my oil pressure drops to zero. After some research here, I figured it could be 1 of 4 things:

1) Oil filter not properly inserted in housing.
2) Bad oil pressure sending unit
3) Bad oil relief valve (in filter housing)
4) Bad oil pump

I sorted the list in order of cost and pain. I've re-adjusted the oil filter and will go on test drive shortly.

In case that does not work, I want to replace the pressure sending unit. I've check alldata DIY as well as the Mercedes CD and cannot determine exactly where it is on my vehicle.

Can someone tell me where to look for it?

How much work is involved to replace it?

Thanks!
