Wow, thank you all for the advice. It is all very helpful. I've learned a lot.
I filled it up (four quarts), started and let idle till warm, all the time watching the pressure gauge. It jumped right up to around 60. It has stayed there all day. I drove about 100 miles total and the gauge never moved.
We replaced a pcv valve (not sure what that is) to start with and will go from there.
I did make a long run, 600 miles, pulling a heavy stock trailer a week ago. The mechanic thinks that may have just been to much. I'll keep a close eye on things and hope for the best.
If it holds decent pressure and does not loose oil fast I'll try cleaning out the valves and pan.
Thanks again............I'll let you know how it turns out.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
