So, on the way home my oil pressure light came off and on, stayed more off than on. But in the process of getting her back to the garage she started to make this horrible grinding/knocking noise. I havent taken anything apart, Im waiting for the engine to cool down, but hope someone here may be able reassure me that its the oil pump, and nothing else.....

Just in case anyone has a similar problem..........turns out the oil pump pulley was wallered out. No metal in the pan, just the pulley is shot. Odd that the pulley would be shot, but better than the alternative I guess. Time to find a pulley, or worse case a whole pump assembly.
