I was going to recommend teflon tape, but I don't think you are supposed to use that with oil lines. Pieces of it could get in the oil and cause damage. I'm not completely sure though.
Lets see what others have to say.

Teflon Tape be nice, just on the end of the fittings,.. Just to give it a tight squeeze.
Check out Flamenco-T (www.fast-turbo.com) Tutorial.

As shown, the BSP adapter is the silver fitting , that screws into the original sensor hole.
Try cleaning off Everybit of oil on the fittings, Teflon tape it and go from there. Liquid Teflon will require LOTS of time to dry before operating.
