Oil pressure problem S70 2000

Nope not yet..but the latest attempt to resolve is under way.
I would imagine that "blockage" of any sorts would RAISE pressure.not so much lower it
one thing i noticed while having a low oil pressure issue is alot of air bubble on the dip stick.
and the running theory after a second oil pump is the pick up tube.
i removed the oil pan for the fourth time (P.I.T.A.) i noticed that the oil pick up tube's mesh was sucked in and kinda blocked up..so i would imagine that after running a few min's that hole would get plugged up and deprive the oil pump and forcing it to cavitate the oil and loosing pressure.
so just today i put it all back together (w new oil pick up tube) and just waiting for things to dry out before i start this puppy back up..
