Default Oil Temp sensor location

Hi All,

Going to be installing an oil temp gauge and was curious where people are placing their sensor at? My two thoughts are either as close to the pickup as possible (either on the oil pan or on a pan spacer), or on a sandwich plate between the oil filter. The sandwich plate seems the easiest but since that has coolant running close to it I'm wondering how accurate/useful the reading would be.

Thanks

I have all extra coolant passenges deleted and run the oil temp through an oil pan spacer.
