So you drove it for 50-60 miles with little or no oil pressure?

Even though you thought the gauge was faulty?

How much noise was the engine making?

It must have been running rough, misfiring with 2 cylinders out.

Yes - that is correct - the gauge failed.
The car's engine was not making any more or less noise. It was exactly the same since day 1. So I took it to the mechanic for changing the oil and check the oil psi gauge and the I found these tiny parts inside.

At the beginning (as seen on 1st page) I thought, that these parts where from the psi oil sensor. So I took the car back home (10miles) and start uploading images and created that Thread. Since then I never drove the car again.

Best - Andron,
