Oil Pressure Switch for Guage & Electric Choke

Although it would only require a simple oil pressure switch over the fuel pump, I'd like to avoid running long wires all the way from under the dash to the front of the engine and than back up to the choke.

If possible, I want to switch my electric choke on/off only when the engine is running through a single oil pressure switch located at the back of my block, but the switch must also double as a mechanical guage (oil tube) fitting, not an idiot light sending unit. Wondering if anyone knows of such a part? Not sure if I could find a tee to fit both, but open to it.

Re: Oil Pressure Switch for Guage & Electric Choke

Correction: I meant I didn't want to run down by the oil filter and back up (not front of engine). I'm referring to the second oil pressure pickup location in the block above the oil filter.
