;-)
Manuel: Maybe dirt has entered the oil system and clogged an oilway.

Betreff: Re: high engine oil pressure/oil sump gasket
Could be that your gasket is from a similar Austin or BMC engine but
does not have the oilway holes needed when fitting it to a 100. Did you
check the new against the old?
All the best
