I just bought my 986s in Florida and drove it home 1000 miles with a oil light on. I listen and feel my engine over relying on the oil pressure light. That's bc if it truly is a oil pressure problem then you're just going to need a new engine. If there is a real reason you have low oil pressure 9/10 times its only fixable by a rebuild.
My issue was that the asshat used the wrong weight oil. Did a oil change to 0w40 and the light was gone.
Ticking is a usual noise for low oil pressure do to something mechanical. Either internal bearings are gone or your oil pick up is clogged with debris.
Your plugs were probably oil soaked from the AOS going out. It'll just dump oil into the intake manifold when it's blown.
I'm just speaking from experience.
