Oil pressure

What model 737 are we talking about? It may make a difference because of the implementation of the oil gage.

Engines I'm familiar with have a differential pressure oil gage - measuring the oil nozzle pressure vs. the sump environment. That way the oil trajectory is correctly assessed. In that case I don't think the indicated pressure should fall off at altitude.
