Okay, so when you said "sending unit" I assumed you were referring to the oil level sending unit.

Whatever it is a picture is required, because the pump feed goes to the regulator then through the filter and back to the engine.

As for when Packard stopped the oil level feature, this is one situation in which I hope I am wrong because the parts book lists the 12th series (1935) as having it. If that is wrong that also calls into question these painted radiator shells on eight cylinder cars and what not that have been causing me indigestion given that, after researching thousands of period pictures, I found only one such verifiable period example (excluding black out cars where all chrome was painted), and that probably was done by the dealer.
