Oil Pressure Sending unit.

So it sems like everytime I take a long road trip, I blow out another oil pressure sending unit and get oil sprayed all over the passenger side of my engine. I have installed 3 brand new ones now. They are all the same though, metal "nut" with the plastic insert. It seems when the engine heats up on road trips it effects the plastic and causes the unit to start leaking badly. Is there a better unit out there that I haven't been able to find? Do I just invest in an oil filter relocation kit and install a different sensor? Help me out Zilvia.

p.s. I'm sure Russ will jump in here with the perfect sollution and make me feel dumb for not knowing it to begin with. But that's ok, that's why we LIKE Russ! Or maybe gcivcx will have yet another answer from his seemingly endless supply of Tech Knowledge. Either way, I get the answer I seek.
