If it's full of oil and makes no noise you need to replace the oil pressure sending unit.

There are two seperate senders for the oil pressure and the oil level, if the oil level is the light you are seeing the level sensor is probably bad ..
It is located in the oil pan near the front by the pulleys or the side of the pan near the bottom depending on what engine you have .. check it and the wireing going to it as the wires sometimes get tangled in stuff under the car and pull out giving a false reading..
