Oil pressure switch on Opel Corsa 1L

    Opel Corsa 99 Model B, 5 door
    120k miles
    1L X10XE engine

    There seems to be an oil leak from the oil pressure switch on my car. I went to order a replacement from micks garage but there seems to be two options for my engine (link). I was wondering if anybody could confirm which one to use, the one on top looks like the one in the car but I want to be sure.

    This is the second time this has happened to me but the last time I had it done by a mechanic. The last time was December 09. Since then I have done about 8500 miles and had the car serviced twice (February and September). I was wondering if this is a common part to go or is it a symptom of something else.

    Thanks for the help.

    Take the car to a main dealer and get the part there. It's not much dearer and you'll get the right part. The genuines are modified and are better made than the spurious onces I've come across. Those oils switches do give trouble BTW
