oil pressure, timing chain? strange situation..

i was sitting in traffic today for quite a long time (it was a breakdown blocking a lane)....and the oil pressure light flashes for a second. i rev the engine, and it doesn't come back...a couple of minutes later, the large exclamation point (check engine?) flashes for a second, with no message on the SID or any other indicator?, then it goes away...everything was fine for the rest of the evening..
i am a little worried, and as a side note, i have noticed an 'uncomfortable' noise from the engine that i suspect is the timing chain area (a sort of 'rattling')...the noise isn't so bad, and i just figured before that with 96k this might just be normal?....always use mobil 1 10w30 for the last 20k and have kept up with everything imaginable....(have put lots of money and care into this car).....
should i be concerned? what should i check? any direction? thanks as always..
