I have a few of these off-numbered ones i have picked up over the years.

Correct, but just to be clear, the originals were black and the bottoms were gold cad (where the pipe nipple is) The black top part is crimped around the bottom cad part.
GM still makes this sender brand new, identical shape, but different part number and of course date code. IIRC, its a duramax diesel oil pressure sender, I think it wrote it down somewhere, see if I can find the new number. It took me a few years to find a nice working one with the right date code. For the time being, paint the cad one and keep your eye out.
