Default Oil pressure issue 00 slp ss camaro

Hey guys ive got a 00 ss camara slp i had it rebuilt from the oil pan all the way to the head everything is brand new on the internals rods cylinder head etc problem i'm having is oil pressure is working great on cold start up between 40 and 60psi after it warms up and also when its hot outside gauge begins to flicker and when ever i'm not opening it up coming to a complete stop psi shows 10 and below took it to a ls1 shop they say it's rear main seal and pump is weak so i took it back to the dealership Penske chevrolet of cerritos and they say it's not rear main seal trans leak will cause that but i think it's all bull they just don't wanna honor there warranty because if it was gauge that would cause oil reading to b at 0psi and then jumps up to maybe 10 psi sometimes making check gauges come on really stressed about my toy any helps good. Help thanks

You did not replace the pump and o-ring pickup tube seal when you rebuilt the whole deal??

Most on here will tell you THAT is your problem right there.

Are the lifters making any noise/ticking/clacking?

You have an aftermarket, extended warranty, or the dealer you purchased it from used gave you a warranty??

IF the o-ring seal was installed incorrectly, or twisted/crushed during installation, the results are the same as an old, worn, shrunken seal.
