My oil pressure gauge is either on the edge of the R in NORMAL or barely touching the N. Never stays in place. That's getting pretty low right?
Theres a hole on the flat behind the intake in the block, towards the passenger side. That's, where it would be if it had one. The first bearings to get oil starved are the # 4 & 8 rods. These are the farthest from the oilpump. So if you have a knock, that's the likely culprits. All I'll say on that pressure reading is never trust the factory gauge. Put a mechanical unit on it to actually see where the pressure is
