Steve I just now had a chance to look at the current PHR and the buildup / LSx swap photos. You did a great job with all the detailed info.
I'm concerned about your oil pressure sender, actually that small 45 deg fitting that you used in order to angle it away from the header...that fitting is going to break. The mass of the sender is too much for it, under vibration. (Think bowling ball stuck on the end of a broomstick).
You might need to use a brass "block" style 45, or try to find some way to support the pressure sender "can", or, find somewhere else on the engine to pick up oil pressure...
I only tuned into this because I had this happen to me once. It was not good.
