what am i do to about the crank position sensor on an obd1 block to obd2 wire system?

i completed the mechanical swap of a 7afe from a 93 corolla into my 97 st (my original engine basically died so i swapped w' a similar engine). i started connecting wires and hoses back and was left w' 1 wire not connected which i found to be the sensor for the crank position, which i believe is resulting in the engine not getting fuel and not running. i've been trying to do as much research as possible but i am still unclear on what to do....

i found out this morning that the crank position sensor can be easily removed from the old engine by simply unbolting it. this still doesn't help much because i also found out that the slot in which the sensor rests in is part of the oil pump housing. so that means i would have to swap the whole oil pump housings which probably means taking out the engine again. i probably could get this all done but my apartment complex has band residents from doing any car maintenance in the complex and if caught will result in a $100 fee everytime seen working on a car in the complex.

i looked at the sensor n where it sits in it seems that the magnet at the end of the wire signals from detecting the movement of the crank. i was thinking of just rigging it to operate off of some of metal piece that moves simultaneously w' the crankshaft. is this really possible or am i just f*****?
