If your feeling rich you can buy these new of the bay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/OIL-PRESSURE-SENDER-UNIT-VAUXHALL-NOVA-1982-1993-53907-/190711629482?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Car+Make%3AVauxhall%7CModel%3ANova&hash=item2c674c86aa

But as above try to find someone breaking a calibra that has the oil/volt gauges, mk2 astra gte's had them to but theres probably not many of these being broken any more.
