Great job on that  Really isolates the problem.
Might be worth checking the oil galley plugs and oil pressure sender back there. Also a quick wipe over the top of the drain plug; something funky about the washer set up. I've had brand new aftermarket drain plugs leak oil; ditto with an OEM plug and an aftermarket washer (not the fiber ones that OldNuc recommends, store was out). Drain plug leak was finally fixed with an OEM plug out of an oil pan I picked up for another saturn.
