Default oil pressure sending unit

Greetings! 96 Stratus with a 2.0......habitual oil leaker, so I did my homework and decided it needed a head gasket.............ahhhhhhhhh no, sorry, wrong,....still leaks oil like somebody is pouring it out. It's coming from the back side of engine. Cam sensor is dry, valve cover gasket, ok, but I noticed a fly-green "sensor" at the very top of the engine (extreme top right / back side of engine) is always oil soaked. Is this the infamous oil pressure sending unit I have been reading about? Assuming that's the problem,were can I purchase one that is made correctly?

Any parts store should have one. That sending unit is on the passenger side of the distributor.
