i have a massive oil leak at my oil pressure sending unit where i tapped for the oil feed to the turbo right above the filter...as my luck would have it...i tried to take it off and do it over again using teflon tape or any sort of sealer...well it still leaks...if anybody had or has a leak there....what did you guys use to fix it?

Did you put a BSPT or an NPT fitting in the port?
If you put an NPT fitting in... there's your problem, get a BSPT one.

Yep. You used an NPT fitting. It isn't NPT.
