I'll grasp at straws with you.  Are you running synthetic 
oil or regular oil?  Synthetic oil holds up better under heat.  
It may be that the oil temp gauge is off, and that the oil is 
hotter than is indicated by the gauge.  If so, regular oil 
might be thinning and causing the drop in pressure.

It may be worth changing the oil with fresh synthetic and 
a fresh filter.  And if you want, add a can of oil flush. 
Follow directions on the can; some you can drive the 
car for a while, and some you merely idle for 5 minutes 
with no load. That may clear out some crud that may 
be clogging passages that may be causing the low oil 
pressure.  Maybe. For the $25-30 it will cost, it's
worth a shot.
