I had an issue with the oil pressure gauge when I was getting ready to leave
for a local car show or at least I thought that was the problem.  Since the
oil pressure was fine when I had backed out of the garage earlier today I
thought it may be the sensor.   Checked the oil and it was fine.  I had to go
and get some gas before heading down the road.  The car drove fine with no
apparent issues.  I stopped the engine to pump gas and it was very hard to
start and the exhaust did not sound correct.  So instead of heading to the
show I decided to head home.  After about a block the oil pressure gauge
started working again and the engine sounded normal.  After getting back to
the house I am hearing the valves click when the engine is running.

Any idea of why the oil pump would quit working?

If damaged was caused what should I look for?
