You obvasly know nothing about cars to not know that the oil pump suction is operated by the timing, the timing mechinism makes the suction in the oil pump work.....

The pump is not drawing oil but only when when sucking. (You knew that). I would guess that moving the heater caused a small leak in the oil suction line or pluggage in a suction strainer/filter. When primed, everything is OK. So ignitor, nozzle, etc is OK when the prime fluid is present. But the pump cannot draw liquid. Look for a very small leak in the suction letting air in. Look for pluggage in a suction filter. It won't take much air inleak or suction restriction to stop a pump from lifting.

just a thing to check. make sure your oil pump is in synch with your engine timing. sometimes the oil pump cycles 2 or even 3 times for each cam rotation. other vehicles it cycles 1 time for every 3 cam rotations. depends on your vehicle. otherwise, i'd say you have a valve guide seal in need of replacement due to oil slippling past it. rings are the worst case scenario since you removed the cylinder head did you prime it before you started it with an oil film? there are a lot of things it could be but i'd check these first.
When the oil lamp lights, it means that your oil pump is not giving the right pressure or it is not working, If it only happens during idling, it indicates that the pump is about to wear and needs servicing, If its intermittent, it may just be a loose wire connection to the sender or a defective sending unit. Try to replace first the oil pressure sending unit.
You did "prime" the oil pump? If the oil pump isn't primed when you install it, the gears are "dry" and won't develop any suction to start pumping oil. Another issue cuold be the pick up screen. When you installed it, did you make sure the angle was correct, so that it sits just above the bottom of the oil pan?
The engines oil pump might be having a problem. Mechanical engine noise is always reason to look for the source. Combined with low oil warnings make sure to resolve this problem first before driving anywhere.
Fixing an oil pump requires removing the oil sump. Someone who knows how can do this in a few hours of work. Alternatively the oil suction pipe might have come off the oil pump assuming the engine had major service some time ago.
Over haul engine or replace it, to do just a crankshaft kit you will also need to have the piston rods mechine or it will start to knock in a short time again.Good luck and I hope this was very helpful.
what are you talking about?? timing mecinism??
