The oil pressure sending unit screws into the engine block so you will need to look between the oil pan and the head.I suggest that you try tightening your oil filter first.
The sending unit is usually near the oil filter. Have you changed the oil filter recently? If the old filter comes off without the gasket and a new filter is installed over it the two gaskets will leak. The pan gasket would likely leak even when it is not running. The sending unit can leak but usually more of a seep than "bad leak" unless it is damaged.
Before you do anything else, check to make sure your oil filter is tight.

u get a second look your self by looking at the transmission u dont have to take anything apart to find the leak the oil pan is easy so check that one first if u see any fluid on or around the pan then the seal is shot that dont mean the tranny will burn up, just keep an eye on the fluid level second the rear transmission seal is located at the back of the tranny where the rear drive shaft slips into the transmission if you notice fluid around there and on the drive shaft thats leaking also but like i said just because u have a few minor leaks dont mean the tranny will blow up just as long as you keep an eye on the fluid level. do your home work and find a good transmission shop that will gaureentee the there work at a decent price.
