I think there the same as an XE/SEH mate it should be behind were the oil filter is on the pump iirc under the alternator.

Andys cav has more miles than the starship enterprise lol

Mr burgo is correct there is no oil pressure in the sump as its just a 'float' for the oil and its only under pressure after the oil pickup has slurped it up via the oil pumps suction :p
