Anyway, one place oil pressure can leak out is the oil pump and if you have an oil filter take off and did not seal it right or with too much RTV sealant, pressure can push its way out somewhere it should not.
Just one place Mike should have a look.
NOW we're back on topic. Good info for you to check Mike. See msg #8 from Keith C as well. Not sure of your setup, but there are threads here about removing your oil pan if it comes to that. As stated above, pull a pressure check straight from the engine with a reliable gauge, from cold to hot.
