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.....

So, I found a place that sells OEM parts and has them in stock. Picked up new pump, checked clearances and they are very, very good. Installed pump, cleaned pan and mating surfaces, installed pan, timing checks f'n great, everything torqued down to specs. Tomorrow put some oil in and start her up. Hope everything is good to go after that point, then I'll button it all back down and test it out.
