- The oil pressure light has no bearing on the no-start issue; when the engine starts, the light will (or at least should) go out.
- Sounds like you have an electrical issue; I'd start by going over everything you touched during your recent maintenance activities.

Are you suggesting that cranking the engine with the starter alone can generate enough oil pressure to extinguish the oil pressure light?

I wasn't sure that oil pressure light and no-start were simultaneous events.
Yes, prolonged starting revs might cause oil pressure light to go off. Switch closes at only a few psi of pressure. I don't know this for certain. It may that in Start postion, oil light is held on?
good luck
