Well I'm after a very strange part here and looking for help !

Between my oil pressure sender and the oil pump plate sat a brass reducer which split when removing and is now in 2 pieces

Without this proving very difficult to check pressure on new engine

Anyone know where I can get hold of one, has a spare or even know what thread size so I could get one engineered ? It seems to be some sort of
1/2 inch male on the oil pump plate &
3/8 or 10mm female for the pressure sender to connect to

Strange that I visited pirtek yesterday with the bits and the guy behind the counter didn't have a clue, perhaps I should have taken that into them to measure it properly ?
