HELP! Sending unit/switches

I have an 85' Toyota pickup that I just did a motor swap in.
It now has a 86+ 22r(e) in it but it is carbureted.

The only problem is I am not sure what sending units I have or where they go...

This is the oil pressure unit they sold me for this year motor and for an idiot light.

But when i got the motor it had this unit in the hole directly under the oil filter.

So i am confused as to which should be in there now... This is how i have it set up.

right or wrong? i dont know... hopefully someone can help.

also my water temperature gauge in the truck pins out at the top as soon as i turn the key... was going to replace but not sure which it is

I included arrows so i could tell them apart...
I think from what i have researched the yellow arrow points to the water temperature sending unit... and the red to a cold start type deal?

Like i said any help you could give me would be GREAT!
this is getting quite frustrating.

well i think the differences in oil sending units is that the one on there is for an SR5 guage package and the one you have like you said is just for an idiot light...

The fatter oil sender is the one for the needle gauge in the SR5 cluster; the idiot light uses the slimmer one. The red arrow temp sender looks like the one that sends to the gauge in my '91 22RE, but apparently T. changed the location of that sender over the years...it's in a different place on my engine.
