Default Oil level sensor location- F body

I hope this is the correct forum for this question.

I am putting a Gen 3 V8 into a BMW & have bought an aftermarket Moroso pan. It has no provision for the oil level sensor. I may omit this part, but if I can locate/make a bung/nut for the sensor, I would like to have it. The pan uses the F body dipstick, so it looks like the sensor location should be the same.

I need someone with an F body oil pan to measure the location of the oil level sensor from:
1) The top rail of the pan and
2) The rear edge of the pan

I need the measurements from the edges to the center of the opening if possible.

Thanks for any help.

The measurements may do you no good if the pan has different dimensions than a stock pan.

The dimensions are indeed different (that is why I'm using it ), but since it uses the same dipstick, the oil level requirement will remain the same.
