Default OPSU Leak

So i got my Oil Pressure sending unit fixd. By using a 90 deg. metal boot, and a new sensor. We pointed it toward the front of the car. I get to school today, after a 10 min drive, i park and leave the car on for 10 mins. I look under the car and its leakin like a bitch. We used teflon tape to seal up the connections but i think thats not workin. I also got an SES light on the way home, usually it just comes on and goes away this one stayd on. I ran the code its 13 O2 sensor. I have goten this SES before, but today its being weird. Any help guys.

I would try to just replace the unit into its stock configuration. I've had my intake off twice with it in place and didn't really have any probs. Try to put it back on without the teflon tape. It could get bunched up in there and cause a bad seal. I don't remember using any tape when I put mine back on.
