...it's the geese hitting your windshield you need to worry about.
Guess you meant 2,500 and yeah, you could have something bad starting due to that low oil pressure bout. Depends on how low your oil actually was, how extended the bout was, and what kind of RPMs you hit under what loads.
It could be minor or persist for a long time without worsening. It might also be you're so worried after the low pressure that you are hearing something that was already there and magnifying its significance.
I would keep driving, with caution, lowering my caution as things go along fine without noise worsening, raising it if in fact noise gets worse.
Probably a used motor makes more sense than a new crank and bearings if in fact there's a problem.
