If there is a port on the filter housing, that will work for a gauge. Where ever the oil pressure sender goes is the place to install a gauge, right on the engine, for testing. In my opinion you do need to see oil moving somewhere. Keep the drill going longer. Have you had the pan off to inspect pickup screen? Sounds like you are on the right track. Take out all spark plugs and crank it some. Not too much, just to see if it will crank. Oil may blow out of holes. If it sounds OK and you got some oil to flow at rockers. Start her up. NOTE: there really is no way to tell for sure that you won't mess it up without some dis assembly, but these preliminary steps will help. If something is already broken inside, you may have trouble. If you know it ran good when parked, then these oil and gentle rebirth methods will work. You probably have a spin on filter. Take it off and fill it. Don't run more than a min or 2 max without water/air flow.
