The silver "can", centre left. It has two terminals on top, and only one wire
The wire coming from a sender top right of picnad going nowhere (kind of grey coloured coiled wire, with plastic end)

I have a gauge, but its brand new and not connected. Which is the sender, the can or the connector on the block at top right. I now suspect the other one (whichever that is) is for the brand new oil temp gauge

The sender at the top right is possibly for timing[and fuel injection if the engine has it].
The can with two finger tightened terminals is the sender for the oil warning light and the oil pressure gauge.
one terminal is marked G and the other one is marked W [from memorie ,i might be wrong!].
