Pull out the sender and check it  Undecided, I had some gunk blocking my oil pressure sender giving me low readings, cleaned it up and it was all good.

Hi
First, fit a manual oil pressue guage to check that the pressure is ok.
Then check your wiring as the fault can often be a short circuit remember your wiring loom is 50+ years old and will be brittle in spots the insulation may have broken away, a bare wire could short against the body causing a flashing warning light.

Good luck
