Default Oil pressure sensor question

If the car is off, can I take out the stock oil pressure sensor and not have oil go all over the place? I'm assuming it wouldn't, but wanted to make sure.

Just got all my fittings form mcmaster.com, shipping couldn't have been any quicker. Awesome service.

You can plug the hole up with a 1/8 NPT plug. I know the threads are not exactly the same but it will do.

Dont even bother with 1/8 npt..... the RIGHT thread size for the pressure sender is 1/8" BSPT (British Pipe thread standard). The difference is in the number of threads per inch. NPT is 27 threads per inch , while BSPT is 28 threads per inch.
