Low oil pressure can also be due worn out bearings or the parts that ride in them. You have cam, main, and rod bearings. To replace the cam bearings you will have to tear the motor apart. Now while you have the pan off to do the oil pump you could take a look at the main and rod bearings. You 'could' go ahead and replace them while you have the bottom end apart, they are not very expensive.
