No, a sending unit is for a gauge, and the switch is for a warning light.
If it has the 4.3 engine, I remove the distributor to gain access to the oil pressure switch.
monitor and read oil pressure. sending that info to the gage cluster.
This is a pressure sensitive switch that controls the oil pressure indicator (light or gauge) on the dash board in the vehicle

Check that the oil pressure is correct. The oil sending switch or the wiring for the switch is the most likely cause.

You will have to remove the oil sending unit/switch and screew a oil pressure gauge into it's place and then start the engine and read the oil pressure.
If it is an oil pressure switch it grounds out internally at a set pressure to send a?æsignal to the oil pressure light that the oil pressure is low. An oil pressure sending unit sends a ?ævariable voltage signal to the gauge indicating the pressure.
