Yes your oil pressure is good, unfortunately you have a blocked passage somewhere. Unfortunately you will have to start taking it apart again.

Valve covers, then rocker assembly. It has been clacking long enough that it should show wear somewhere. The push rods will be a huge clue, the bottoms get lubed from the bottom the tops from the top. If you find wear marks at the top or the bottom of the push rod will be the biggest clues so make sure when you pull them out you mark which side is up.

I think with both rocker covers off and both rocker assemblies off AND inspecting the push rods you will find where the noise is coming from. Dig back in to it don't drive it any more you will destroy it.

I have a rocker assembly I could box up and send you but I gave the push rods away with the heads.
