never flown the 737 but when i remember right from my bae146 time the amount of oil in the pump sumps is a function of rotor speed . the quantity is metered in the sumps not the oil tank and when the engine is standing still the sumps are nearly emtpy and the oil is in the tank.

but not 100% sure here.
