Hello,
The other things I have seen is the o-ring on the pick up tube rolled. I usually put a lot of grease/trans gel on it keep that from happening. I have also seen dirt left on that mating surface were the tube goes into the timing cover cause a leak allowing air to get sucked into the pump.
Another check if you have the pan down is to make sure the balance shaft chain isn't loose and rubbing against the timing cover were the oil goes up.
As a last thought if you pack the oil pump with petroleum jelly, trans gel or grease it should prime. Good Luck, Bernie
