A broken plastic insert in the oil line to the cam bearings is a well known reason for low idle oil pressure on many MB engines. I've also heard of a cracked cam tower causing low idle oil pressure, and they do break on occasion, they are aluminum.

A lot cheaper than an engine overhaul, and also something that could develop while driving.
