Hello to everyone in Triumph world!

On a TR7, the oil transfer casing is bolted to the block with a single center 
bolt.  There is another threaded hole on the casing, which the oil pressure 
sender for the oil light screws into.  And there is yet a third location for 
a threaded hole, but it is not drilled out.  

Any reason I couldn't drill and tap the third location, and use it to screw 
in a sender for an oil pressure gauge?

If that's not a good idea, I know some folks buy a "T" so that two senders 
can share the single hole.  If that's preferable, can anybody point me to 
where I could buy the "T"?  I know that Rimmer Brothers has one, but I was 
hoping someone on this side of the pond might carry one.  

Thanks!
