You might want to check the oil pressure relief spring in the pump if you happen to have the oil pan off again for some reason. The pressure isn't dangerously low, but unless you're running very thin oil, the hot cruise RPM pressure should be a little higher, 30 PSI or more. 10 PSI at slow idle isn't bad, but it could stand to be a bit higher, also.
