Default Oil Pressure Problem, decellerating

Oil levels fine..Oil pressure at idle + WOT is fine, but when decelerating like to a red light or any stop, the oil pressure drops and hits damn near 0. What would the cause of this be? A clogged/bad oil pickup?

Any input would be awesome.

Car is a 454 '70 Camaro

Pickup came off the pump. I had the same problem on a 350 LT1.

I never posted back.. fixed it shortly after thread was made, and it was the oil pickup as aforementioned.
