This car, despite the age and the high millage use to run like new, but now I start hearing almost clicking noises coming from behind the timing belt area. The timing belt was done about 60,000 miles ago and still look new. So I think it might be a oil pump that cannot produce high pressure anymore.
My question is: what pressure - in psi - normally it should be? And it its NOT the oil pressure, what else could it be?

Hi sambaron, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Oil pressure at idle -should be 43psi and @ 3K rpm 36-71psi

Double check the idler and oil pump pulley-loose belt
