lol, i did the very same thing today....swapping my LS1 for a LS6 intake....broke the sending unit...i went to Autozone and they had to order one because they didn't have one in stock. Bought the Sending Unit socket while i was there too. All it is is a 1- 1/16th deepwell socket...nothing special.

lol, I haven't even gotten the intake full yinstalled yet. I'm waiting for my oil sending unit to come in tomorrow to finish. I'll let you you how it runs once its done though.
From what I can tell with the intake out right now it is possible to do with the intake still in it but would be a big PITA and take LOTS of patience. I would suggest taking the intake partially out as in leaving the fuel rails attached and just sliding the intake forward a bit to get at sending unit better....should be pretty easy to get at from the passenger side with the intake moved forward. But if you left it in I would think the best way to get at it would be from the driver's side. but like I said it would be PITA that way.
