Thanks for you quick response Bruce. Much appreciated.
I did have good oil pressure before.

I have added another picture that shows a view of the other side of the oil pump housing. (also not mine, but exactly the same). There is no pin that can be driven out from distributor side, which are normally found. I think mine is from a Lotus Excel or so.

I will definitely try and remove the belt and spin the aux pulley. Somehow during the long oil change, i must have lost prime. Should I pack the oil pump rotors with vaseline (petroleum jelly) and then spin the aux pulley with a drill?

I presume I should turn it unit oil comes out at the cams correct?
