455 oil pressure

Well I finally found time to pull the (driver's side) valve cover, and there is indeed no oil that I can see going up there, although strangely it doesn't seem noisy at all. So I'm wondering, how did I lose my oil pressure in maybe 150 miles of driving? I never messed with any of the oil plugs when I changed the motor, and I did have pressure when I first primed & started it back in June. I don't have the money for a rebuild, so I'm thinking I'll pull it, change the bearings & the oil pump (which was new, from summit), stick it back in, & see what happens. Anyone have any other ideas? Stuff I should try? Thanks as always.
