If that comes out of the block behind the intake then yes it is an oil pressure sender. That particular one is for a oil pressure light though, not a gauge. It is just designed to turn on/off a light at some preset pressure setting. The one for an electrical gauge (not a direct pressure reading unit) is usually larger in diameter and down by the oil filter.
