Oil Pressure

I seem to have a similar problem that "Parkhurst" is having in that my 96 V4 has lower oil pressure than what it used to have just a short time ago. It was much above 50 and sometimes 60 most all the time and now the most I see is about 38 when cold and 30 MAX after it gets up to normal operating temperature. If I stay below 3000 rmp then I maintain the 10 psi per 1000 rpm, but above 3000 rpm, it just stays at 30 psi. I have replaced the gauge(cheap enough), and also verified that the oil line is not clogged. I also removed the plug that connects the oil line to the block, and made sure it was not clogged as I did see a little oil leakage on it. So it appears it might be a little more serious than just a bad gauge or a line problem. Any recommendations on what I should try next? Please be gentle :-)
