No point having an oil pressure gauge with a rotax or other high precision engine according to a modern engine expert.

If the pressure drops much at all the thing will seize. There is no gradual decay where the thing sputters and runs on 10% oil pressure, it either works at full pressure or it is about to catastrophically fail.
