So is the pump bad? there are a few oil galleys that could be clogged up, is the oil pickup clogged? there is an oring at the top of the pickup where it goes into the pump, they can get brittle and cause low oil pressure. What you dont want to do is try and drive the thing, just disconnect the ignition (pull a fuse) and run it on the starter to see if the pressure light goes out that way you are not risking permanent engine damage due to lack of oil, which could get expensive real fast.
