Default Need help 2000 Honda Civic lx sedan

My oil light keeps turning by on after the car reaches the operating temp but my fluids are all good. I’m not sure if it’s just a bad oil pump or oil pressure sensor. There’s no visible leaks anywhere so the only other thing would be one of those right..?

Bad oil pump, caved in oil pan bottom, damaged or clogged oil pick-up, excessive main or rod bearing clearance, or a failing oil pressure switch/wiring. Since the light only comes on once the engine is warmed up, it is unlikely that the problem is the oil pressure switch or wiring.

Well as of today the oil light has been turning on for about a minute then turns off for 10-20 minutes then turns on again. It keeps repeating. I did a new oil change and cleaned out the magnet inside the oil pan and checked for any dents but the pan was good.
