...well - it wasn't really gone 
the rebuilt dual gauge indicator was loose! Refitted the old Motometer single oil pressure gauge and: 45 calibrated psi on idle after starting.
The oil pump needed fired engine speed to bleed air out - took about 20 sec. from start.
My engine pre-oil system via air pressurized eezibleed / oil filter central mounting thread (3/4 UNF hydraulic fitting) worked great! The engine was full of fresh Duckhams while the starter cranked.
