The trans temp will need a Tee inbetween one of the return lines from the radiator (you should install a trans cooler too). That is assuming its an electric gauge, if its mechanical just run the line through the firewall to the place where you want to put the Tee.
As for the A/F ratio return it and get your money back, oil pressure is alot better than a sub $300 A/F ratio gauge.

Oil pressure line.

This is what's at the other end. A tee and one is the OEM oil pressure switch and the other end is the autometer oil pressure sender.

Tranny temp probe manifold is located between the outlet line of the auto tranny and the inlet of of the OEM tranny cooler. The tranny temp probe manifold setup is actually pretty simple. The oil pressure probe is a bit complex.
