Yes you can but you'll need the oil pressure sender/switch.. The one on the calibra with the guage should have pins for the pressure gauge and the light on the dash.

On a 2.0 it will be low down on the block near the oil pump.. Should be pretty large compared to a normal oil pressure switch.

What engine you got in corsa? 
 
Can get a sandwich plate which goes between oil filter and can connect senders to it.

  Strangely, EPC reckons they came on some Novas, Frontera 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.3 & 2.5 diesel, Carlton 3.0, Senator 2.6 & 3.0 and Astras and Calibras.

  Wire the calibra gauge sensor wire to the terminal on the pressure sender which you can screw a nut onto.
