No the head gasket is just something that happens on a 7M.
And it might not be the oil pressure gauge. Sounds more and more like a spun bearing. Oil pump might be dead.
Do some more recon and let us know. Easiest way to check for a oiling problem, pull one of the cam caps off, if they look scared, if they are your going to have to pull the motor apart and see what failed.
