When upgrading the dash in an el to a "sports" model (added battery voltage and Oil pressure gauges), where is the best place to source the required oil sender?

They're now around $60 and as above, $20 second hand.

Yes that's all you require to upgrade to a 'mid' series.
But if you purchase a Fairmont cluster, you'll need to undo it and solder a resistor to the circuit board.
