Track day sump help

[Nicksy]

Well finally got the engine back today after having a few mods done. Started to fit the new track day sump and noticed that its got a extra threaded outlet low down to the cockpit side of the sump. Is it an additional drain plug or something else?

Thanks

Use it to fit a temp pressure gauge. I'm sure on mine there is another blocked thread hole. Its at the front of the engine side right?

It's for the oil temperature sensor.

Does anyone know what size the plug should be?

I can't help with the plug size but how's it going overall? According to plan....ish?

Thread in the sump is 5/8 unf, so a bolt that size with correct washer will do the job.
