Stumped: Oil pressure switch port

This one has me a bit confused. I'm trying to re-purpose the oil pressure port on the engine to add an aftermarket sensor by using a splitter-T. For whatever reason the fitting will not screw into the engine. I have purchased two separate fittings and neither fits. But both of the sensors (the OEM and aftermarket) fit in the engine port and into the splitters. I can even fit the splitters into one another, but in the end neither will screw into the engine by more than half turn. I don't want to strip the threads so I'm hesitant on adding significant force.


Anybody got any ideas?
