It is hard to clean the main oil line. The fuel pump bushing is in the way. I made a special driver to knock it thru to the cam bore. I cleaned the passage with a wire brush and oily rags.I suspect some blockage in the line or around the bushing. You do have the bushing installed? That will drop the pressure. I suspect a blockage rather than a leak.
