What oil pump do y’all recommend I have 10psi when hot and I don’t won’t to ruin my engine. Stock and has 189,000 miles. Thanks in advance.

1)if you haven't done so check the pressure with a mechanical gauge to confirm the pressure.
IS the 10 at idle?
2) if it's actually 10 an oil pump isn't going to solve anything. . You should replace both the main and rod bearings.
If( likely) the cam bearings are shot no easy fix for that, just do the other stuff and hope for the best.
