    You can get oil pressure readings from both the rear of the block next to the distributor or down by the oil filter. However I do believe you have it wrong about which produces the highest pressure. The reading from the oil filter area is were the highest reading is compared to the rear of the block by the distributor. Both of these locations provide "Good" information.

    I am pretty sure this is correct however if I am wrong someone correct me please.

    By the filter is the best, but in some cases the front of the block is more accesible. Unless you have a P/S pump in the way.
