1st of 2 questions - oil press. sensor

Alright, where is the oil pressure sensor on my 5sp 88max? If I'm on my back under the car with my feet towards the front and my head towards the back and staring at the oil filter, please please PLEASE tell me it's not that threaded thing directly to the left (drivers side) of the oil filter?

If it is - how the hell do I change that? There's not way to reach around the exhause to get to it?

If it's not - where is it?

Yup that is the oil psi sender. You can get at it with a wrench.

From the top or the bottom? I'm a skinny guy and there is no way I can reach into there from the bottom. There is just no room on either side of the exhaust pipe. I can't get my hand in there at all. I can barely get to my oil filter. Any tips or ideas?
