I changed the oil pump and let the car warm up . the oil pressure still dropped ,the engines oil light turned on and the engine started making a "knocking " sound.

Please tell me you also changed the oil or at the very least added a quart. I really doubt the pump was at fault.

Take off the Vtec solenoid and see if its clogged or anything. The knocking doesn't sound too good...spun bearing.
