An occassional spot of oil changed to significant oil leak. Seems to be on passenger side. From descriptions from others, the oil sending unit is located below the oil filter. Not sure how to change the unit. Can you help?

You will need an oil pressure switch socket a parts store should have. Take off wire and replace. A little teflon tape is good to use.Also DO NOT over tighten it is tapered and bad stuff may happen.
Good luck
