Bearing failure = low oil pressure. Why?
Why does oil pressure drop as bearings (main and connecting rod) fail?

Because, the gaps are bigger ?

More oil flows out around the bearings, reducing the flow in other places, hence reducing pressure.

Warning...Do not try to use motor after the smoke has escaped. Smoke is supposed to be contained within a motor, generator, a/c system or wiring. .
Once the smoke escapes the item no longer works as designed.  People with LBC's will no doubt confirm this hypothisis.  It's known as the 'Lucas phenomena'. .
