Something doesnt look right. That metal tab sticking out of one of those pig tails is suppose to be part of a sensor.

Those look like the two connectors that go to the throttle body and the one with the metal tab looks like the connector for the oil pressure switch.

None of those use a spring clip like 8 though. It looks like 8, 9, and 19? maybe. I only see 3 connectors in the op's picture

took a look at my car, you are missing the controller for the fuel pressure regulator. See attached pic.

One of those is your oil pressure switch, so that could be why the oil pump isn't working. And I forgot what the stock fpr connector looked like haha, good call Biggiesacks.

The pump will still work but your idiot light (low oil pressure) will make it look like its not working is what he meant.

Check your oil level first. If it is full, check the sensor. It may be broken, have a bad connection, faulty in some way, etc. They are cheap and are on the shelf at most part stores.

ok so here's a recap of what I have done. I currently have a defi oil pressure gauge. I took out the valve cover and the head is dry just a little bit of oil. I took out the oil feed line to the turbo and crank and no oil will come out. so I progress to take out oil pan and check the oil baffle and its not plugged, the I decided to take out the oil filter and its completely dried. I wish we had a person who live close to us...I appreciate everyone for all the help

read through the thread i posted, post number 7 might help you
you need to force oil into the pump then your best bet would be to take the timing cover off and put a drill onto the oil pump. if you dont want to do that, you might be able to get away with just cranking the car with the fuel pump diconnected until you get oil coming out of the turbo oil feed line. reattach the oil line and crank some more so that your turbo gets some oil too.
