Would be best to get it from as close to the pump as you can so that oil gets to the turbo quickly on start up.
I wouldn't get it from the oil pressure gauge location.
If we knew what it was we were doing it wouldn't be called research would it!

You can either use the presure gauge location which is usually on the main oil way that feeds the crankshaft or the fit a sandwich plate to the filter
head.

On the Blacktop Zetec there is a second tapping the same as the oil pressure take off, about 200mm further back, with a blanking plug in it, you can
use that, it is in the same oil gallery as the pressure point.
Alternatively, use the pressure take off point for the Turbo, and use the back tapping for the pressure take off.
Oops just realised its Madteg whos using a blacktop, misread your info panel......

That's how my holeshot busa is plumbed but it also has an uprated oil pump.
