Just because there's oil in there doesn't mean there's oil pressure. The pump could have failed, or it could be as simple as the sending unit got hit by whatever was flailing around. You shouldn't be driving the car dude until you get these problems fixed. All this junk is just going to snowball into a huge problem.

When my car was eating alt. belts, everytime the belt got ripped it would hit the pressure gauge sending unit wire and knock it off. It should be easy to tell if that's the case, just look under the car behind the drivers side front tire, if there's a wire laying there somewhere, it could very well be the wire for the sender.
