Default Strange buzzing while car is off

Today, I went to check my oil level after shutting off my car, and I noticed a strange buzzing noise. The buzzing occurs every 10ish seconds and lasted for about 5 seconds. The buzing continued for about ten minutes after shutting off my car. I have no idea what it is! For the first time too, my oil pressure fluctuated (but never went below 30 psi) while driving.

Could be the air pump......mine did that years ago even though it was unhooked.

Don't see how it can buzz on and off like that.
