It ended up that the proble was that when I put the motor in the wire from the oil sending unit got caught under the clutch slave cylinder and smashed against the crankcase grounding it out. So that the light stayed on.
The good thing in all this is that I got to learn more about how to take apart and put back together the oil pump and to be better at diagnoising problems. I too prefer a oil gage rather than an idiot light. Thank you everone for your help and insight it made me think in a different direction.
