Sometimes using the wrong oil can cause the oil pressure light to turn on. I had to use 20w50 on my 1984 or the pressure light would turn on. Pressure guage to confirm after you make sure the correct oil is in the engine.
Sending usints ar on the head and on the oil filter housing. The pressure switches have different values. The oil temp and water temp sensors also have different values. The values are writen on the switches and sensors. They may not be correct but you have to report back with what values you have, what oil you are using and what your pressure guage reads for more help.

While you could be right, but since they both may be indications of the same problem and they involve different sensors, I think I would think they are for real and I would be worried about possible damage.
