Default Oil pressure loss

Good afternoon. I have a new 347 wth about 5 miles on it that lost oil pressure. Had 50 pounds at cold start, would level off to about 40 at idle. Driving it for the 1st time and pressure dropped off to just above 0 after 3 miles. Pulled distributor and pump shaft not broken and pump spins freely. No external oil leaks. I read it could be 1 of the galley plugs at the front of the motor that popped out. Does this make sense and would it cause total loss of oil pressure. Thanks for any help.
