I think most everyone is tapping above the oil filter. I would like to know also if there's an easier or better alternative.

On our C5 system we remove the block off plate that the oil temp sensor is screwed into and drill and tap the boss on the plate. Be sure to use -3 line for the feed and depending on a bushing or bb turbo a restrictor needs to be used.
