My oil pump seal has always leaked since I’ve owned the truck but it’s gotten worse lately so time to fix it. I also feel like oil pressure has been a touch lower recently...I know not to trust the gauge and oil is changed religiously, and never use wix filter. I was just curious if failed oil pump seal would have an affect on oil pressure? Truck runs and sounds normal. I guess I’m just hoping to see pressure improvement after repair so I can really feel like I’ve done some good!
