Default Oil Temp Gauge

My oil temp/pressure(I’m assuming it’s oil temp) Won’t raise upon start up, I’m confused on if it just because it needs to warm up or not, I have noticed that sense cab dumping the truck, that the sounds of the exhaust is different, when the oil temp gauge is light up and on L the sound of more high pitched and aerated, when at optimal running temperature, is louder and lower,

I haven’t owned the truck very long but do my work to maintain the truck, frequent oil changes and spark plugs.

Anything helps,
