Only drive my car on weekends and I never realy look at the area but I see my oil pressure gage is at zero like the needle is down it won't even move but my car sounds feels and drives healthy no knocking or wired noises I even abuse the sh!t out of it tonight still runs like a champ and the needle still down im assuming it's the oil pressure switch ???? Or is it realy I don't have any oil pressure ???

Since you do not hear any ticking noises which are a sign of oil pump failure...It is probably the sender near the oil filter. This is cheap to replace and easy.

I would recommend not driving it too much until you get it figured out. Could be an underlying issue (gasket material in pickup).
