The first one is an engine cooler sandwich adapter plate which looks like it just has 2 fittings for lines for the engine oil cooler radiator. And the second one is a turbo oil feed fitting. If you're just trying to add one oil pressure sensor you probably get away with a turbo fitting

Both are also being sold as pressuresender-fittings.You can mount anything onto it as long as there is pressure i recon.
Question was if there are clear pro's or con's to any of them in the sense of mounting,clearance,strenght or something like that.
To the sandwhichplate i can also mount the oiltemperature-sender but i am a litlle weary of leaking,seems a lot to close off for just a single rubber gasket ring,is it not ?

If you have very little room under your intake manifold probably best to go with just the fitting. If you look at your other thread you started I posted a picture of a fitting installed but its for my oil turbo feed line. You would put your new pressure sensor where I have my Turbo line. Read through my thread it shows a lot of pictures of stuff you've been asking about

Can't open the picture to get a larger view.
Could you explain to me where your oilfeed pickup is from and where your returnline connects to the engine ?
Have you got a link of that fitting ? Can't find it on E-bay.Or just Autoparts store ?

Auke. its kinugawa brand. It's $12.89 on ebay. Sellers name authentic-boosting. I don't understand what you mean by oil feed pickup and return?
