Default is this a bad fuel pump???

I was just crusing today and all of a sudden my rpms dropped, and my oil light turns on,(not my dash lights, like wen a car dies) but just my oil light. And my car dies. I have a couples friends help push it outta traffic and we tried to start it. It cranks but never turns over.
So we turned it to the on position and listened for the fuel pump to prime and it didnt. I havent tried taking the hose at the fuel rail off to see if its getting fuel or not yet cus it was getting late. Im thinkin it could be my main relay, bad fuel pump, ignition switch etc.

the motor is a 97 h22a4, and if it is the fuel pump then it looks like im gonna upgrade the fuel pump. Wat do u guys recommend? so far all it has is i/h/e. thanks in advance

also, leading up to this, ive noticed that my car would have hard starts every now and then. and also it would sometimes hesitate under acceleration.

i would assume so. Theres also a little light that you can put inside the injector plugs to determine if you get fuel or not. It will light if you get fuel
