Sounds like a cracked block to me. Think about it. Oil pressure is normal when cold. When it warms up, the crack expands and you loose oil pressure.

Saw this on a Pontiac once. Chased the problem for months...

No leaks, car is dry. Cracked block sounds like a possibility I suppose but I am mroe sure its the bearings
