It is highly likely that the leak IS coming from the oil pressure sender, oil pressure senders are a common problem on any vehicle, however you never know who is feeding you a line. For instance, worst case scenario the oil is leaking from the rear main seal, and you have to pull the transmission, and if it is a manual, you have to replace the contaminated clutch. My recommendation, have it inspected at a shop, they will gladly put it up on the lift, then you know you are getting a non-biased answer from a knowledgeable source that can identify the leak if it is not from the sender.
