Oil pressure light continured.

I ordered a GM OEM oil pressure sensor for my Vauxhall V6 3.0 Arc. I had high hopes that it would solve the oil light issue. It didn't. To have the oil pressure light to come on, engine has to get hot and idling. Disappointing problem as my car has never been raced or abused, had synthetic oil changes every few thousand miles, and only has 137K miles. Anything that I read to remedy low oil pressure seems major. Engine runs like a top so hard to imagine the bearings are loose. I do smell oil but it doesn't drip on the driveway. Looks like a valve cover gasket is seeping some. I checked the oil pressure sensor with a DVM and it is grounding (low oil pressure) so it's for real. Not sure what else to check without major surgery.
