Default Installing Mechanical Water Temp Gauge

Since we're taking longer and longer trips in our GMC hauling the camper, I've decided to install a couple of mechanical gauges, just in case the electric ones fail me.

I did this years ago on my inline six and I felt better having them.

I attached a picture of the driverside of my 305D block... Notice the pipe plug in the lower righthand side of the photo... I'm assuming this is where I install the sensor for the mechanical water temp gauge? I notice there is one on the other side too, but with the starter and the exhaust flap thing, it's kind of crowded on the passengerside.
