Rob,
In the original 914 2,0 ltr engines, the temperature sender was placed yust near the drain plug, in a 'bulge' of the sump cover plate, not being the plate that houses the oil screen/mesh 'filter'. You know, that cover that seems to have no other function :-). It has a (green?) rubber sealing ring in its edge.
Anyway, if you can get hold of such an (original) cover plate, the sender might just fit right in! The sender is than positioned at an angle, like the original...
Hope this is any help.
Walter
