You either have oil pressure or you don't. Transmission will let you know very quickly. If it's slipping or inop then it could be low on fluid or clutch plates worn. A pressure gauge would then be a good diagnostic tool.
I agree with Ken. Creeping oil temp would give you a heads up that plates are slipping. Temps over 190 mandate an oil change.
Either gauge is good. Find a 1/8 pipe plug in transmission, screw in either gauge, run the wiring. If you have a 10-180 ohm sender make sure you have a 10-180 ohm gauge. Don't tape the threads as they are the ground path.
