STOP and Oil Warning lights

[RichCup]

I get these popping up every now and then (mainly for the first 10mins or so of driving when it's cold on a morning).

Checked the oil and the level is fine, definately circulating round the engine too so I don't think there's a problem with the pump. I assume it's just a dodgy sensor or a connection somewhere, but is there anything else worth checking just to be on the safe side?

Cheers

Front of the engine from memory, down behind the radiator kind of area (near the dipstick).

Cheers! Need to do an oil change anyway so will take a look. Any ideas of the price of these? Or a part number? (My local dealer isn't too great unless I give them a part number lol).
