That looks like really good oil pressure that's great. Maybe try replacing the o-rings on them and reinstall them. If they're only five years old they should still be just fine. I have some that are more than 20 years old but I don't ever mess with them and I imagine the first time I do they'll probably break. Funny story about lifters making noise, customer brought in one of his cars and somebody had used the red silicone. I had to take a cam cap bolt and have it machined with a hole in it. Then I hooked up an air compressor to it and had to blow out the oil galleys in the head while it was still on the motor. Drained out the oil there was several bits of red silicone had gotten trapped in the head somewhere and was making a whole lot of noise. Luckily it worked that guy still drives that car with very quiet lifters. Not saying that your problem but I've seen strange things happen. If you need to borrow that bolt with the hole drill in it you're more than welcome.
