Maybe (I doubt it) the VVT system can reduce pressure in the rest of the system if not commanded properly?
Now I'd like to see a detailed diagram of ll of the oil passages in this engine.

I will admit I am not the most mechanically inclined person, but I had a feeling the service writer was bullshitting me. I forgot to mention that when they replaced my engine, an o-ring was pinched somewhere and caused it to leak oil. I got home and parked the car and the next day I woke up to this:

It lost about a quart total from the drive home.
