You need to get a mechanical oil pressure gauge. Take it for a good highway run to get the oil good and hot and then let it idle and see what the oil pressure really is at idle when hot. Or get a mechanic to do that. Don't ignore it.

Didn't see where you actually pulled the dipstick and checked the current level. First things first.

Wonder if it is a cluster problem like our '04-'08 F-150s have? You can always try the "dash bang" when your oil pressure goes away to see if it comes back?

If it actually had no oil pressure you would here valve train noise first then probably a lot more noise after that, but I don't see it idling and running as smooth as silk with out oil pressure for very long.

Get a sandwich adapter for your oil filter.
