Is their any other spot to put an oil pressure sender besides the spot where the factory sender is? I already have the SC oil feed line taped into that location and dont want to put a bunch of T fittings down their because I fear that they might get ripped off if I hit some junk on the road.

I think there are some taps on the lower block, but you would have to look thru the FSM to be sure. (I'm not sure what kinda pressure reading you would get from it.

One more T won't hurt anything, you might have to be creative and run a short SS line from the OEM fitting, to a distribution block, and tap off of that to each other fitting (gauge, S/C oiler)...

Hell, now you don't even have to be creative!
