Which wire coming off of the oil sending unit on the oil pan do I tap into for a oil pressure guage?

There is no oil pressure signal from the oil level sensor. (2 reasons)
1) It simply does not have it.
2) You would not get oil pressure from the oil pan. It has to be read from somewhere on the block or maybe heads where there is actual oil pressure. The oil in the pan is just basically laying there...no pressure.

I believe there is still pressure inside of the pan, I know they make adapters...
that go on the oil filter location to get pressure, I just am not sure if they work for the S4 ( my friend has one on his STi, it is made just for this). But, I am no expert just throwing out an idea, Id just like to know. Thanks for the response.
