Temperature sender: one or two?

One sensor will monitor one side of the engine. If you use two sensors, one one post and one two post daisy changed together the single post becomes the "O' S**T sensor". Went the single post activates the stock gauge shows max deflection or max hot. Either two gauges or a toggle switch and two sensors with one gauge allows more accurate monitoring of both sides of the engine.

I thought it was the other way around. The two post left hand side is the one that just switches to max. hot while the one post right hand side actually measures temperature.

To read both heads with one gauge and a switch, I'd need two single post senders?

Yes and make sure the senders are compatible with the gauge. Personally I use an electric Stewart Warner gauge and SW senders.
