location of mechanical oil pressure gauge

I think the oil pressure sending unit screws into the block at the
rear, just next to the distributor. You might try that first.

Unless you hear the engine clattering like mad at idle your oil pressure

Unless you're just dying to test out your oil pressure meter :)
