Maybe the oil pump bypass valve spring is broken or weak or the valve is stuck open?
As said you really need to measure the actual pressure with a decent gauge before trying to second guess the cause.
The ticking relay is a strange one though. Does your motor have an oil pressure protection circuit so that it won't fire up until the oil pressure comes up when cranking?
