Where it exits the engine for a gauge, so if you cannot plumb just before the thermstat then fit in the top hose.

Yes a gauge should go in the engine water outlet before the thermostat if that is not suitable anywhere in the cylinder head, or in the coolant by-pass circuit

BEST PLACE IS JUST BEFORE THE WATER ENTERS THE RADIATOR
