I dont know if anyone else mentioned it, but when my oil pressure sender gave up the ghost not too long ago, I didn't have many visible symptoms either.
Once the oil pressure was up high enough the pressure sender would start dripping, the oil would pool in a crevice in the block, and follow a trail that would run the oil down the exhaust where it would burn up. I noticed no smell as it was really only leaking while driving. Took me a while to find the leak in fact. To confirm that the oil pressure sender was inded the culprit, I started the cold engine, and gave it some revs while looking at the pressure sender with a flashlight pointed on it.
