Default Oil Temp Gauge

I'm installing a fairing in the near future on my 07 RC. I'm going to put a oil preassure and oil temp gauge in it.
I have read of people putting the senting unit in the oil pan, I'm curiuos as to how you did this because there are no pipe plug fittings in the pan that I can see. There are 2 drain plugs but they are both straight threaded.

Does it look like this? The sending unit will go into the plug labeled crank. You will need an adapter, 3/8 M, NPT x 1/8 F, NPT or Napa # 3220 x 6 x 2.
