People seem to complain about the search function on here (never tried it, myself), but oil pump threads are frequent. If the search works, you should find plenty of info.

Make your query "oil pump" (quotes included) and concentrate on the actual oil pump threads. It includes a lot of threads that you could care less about, but will show you some that are purely oil pump related.
FWIW, I chose a Melling standard pressure standard volume for my build. However, YMMV.
