if your oil gauge is showing little to no pressure at all but your engine isn't makes noticeable noises then it could be the pressure sensor, I have this problem and they should only cost like 10 of 15 bucks to buy a new one. Or if it is making a noiceable difference in noise it could very well be something with the oil pump, maybe the pick-up tube that hooks up to it could have came off in the oil pan or cracked oil pump or bad oil pump.
