What rpm? 50psi cold can be normal, 25psi with hot engine at 2-3+k rpm is normal, depending on gauge accuracy, 10psi hot idle is normal.
Too bad about no oil pressure. I would recommend getting a used oil analysis if the oil is the same when this happened. You'll get a report about engine wear metals that will tell you what damage has occurred. Analysis is about $25-$30. I use Blackstone Labs.
Judging from present oil pressure you might have dodged a bullet.
I have installed a real tandem aux oil pressure gauge and had an electronics friend make a circuit board that buzzes loudly if pressure goes to zero.
What material was the syncro gear made of?
