I’m doing a mechanical oil gauge for the first time on my 2009 v6. I just can’t find the port, I’m probably looking right at it around the oil filter but Idk what it looks like. I’ve seen tons of threads and videos online but I haven’t seen an 05-09 location pic or vid. Here’s some pics I took around the filter. Thanks

That looks like it. If you take it out and get coolant instead of oil, we're both wrong, but that matches the pictures of the part I find online, and the one time I did one (was on a 2005 4.0 Mustang) I just remembered it being behind the radiator hose.

An oil pressure switch will typically have a single wire connector 'cause the switch body grounds where it's mounted near the oil filter, so I think you've found the correct one.
