Finally got the oil pressure tested..Although he did not test it while cold so the readings are only hot.
8@ idle
40@2k
Thoughts?

8psi at idle is to low, the oil light comes on at or below 8psi.

That's way too low at idle, sure it will cause it to tick and be noisy.

Front cover is being replaced as well as the timing chain water pump and a new belt. Anything else you guys can think of while he has the front apart?
