First choice is a tee-piece. If you have an oil pressure gauge, remove the sensor and put in a tee piece with two outlets, one for the pressure gauge and one for the temperature gauge.

But better than that, if you get a sandwich plate to plumb in the oil cooler you can order it with a tapped (threaded) hole to take your temperature sender.

Please don't fit a sender to the sump - sorry Denis - because that will not give you the maximum oil temperature, which is what it is important to monitor.
