You need to throw a mechanical gauge on it - the electrical gauge might have an issue. But it is suspect that it is suddenly reading low.

Major bummer but at least now you know. A word to the wise, replace all rubber oil lines and oil cooler. Look closely at the piston skirt also for bearing material. It gets in the skirts and wrecks them.
