Crankcase pressure sensor in head

Hey hive mind, I’m installing a crankcase pressure sensor and want to drill and tap the head as shown. tell me why this is a bad idea.
Or that it’s ok?

I don't see a reason why that wouldn't be a good spot to monitor.

I'd really be interested in your evac setup and what your results are.

why not do it on the valve cover? that way you could try it out on both pass and drivers side and not have to drill a hole in your heads?
