2G-specific Oil light ? oil Gauge ? Oil Pressure ? HELP !

ok...
Got a 97 Tsi AWD
recently did an oil change 4 days ago ( if it matters )
my oil pressure light is coming on (started today). The Oil pressure gauge seems to be working good, driving the car the gauge goes up past half way like it did sence I got the car, but the oil pressure light is going on and off and sometimes staying on.
The oil level on the dip stick seems good, right on the mark
I was under the car and it is a little wet under there which it has been sence I got the car and Im getting 2 or 3 Tiny drips of oil when I leave the car sit, which has also been like that sence I got the car.. Its minor drips, not even enough to show the loss on the dip stick.

But im worries about that light coming on.
What could it be ? bad sensor of some sort ? bad oil pump ?
it only started doing it today.

Need help quick guys, suggestions on what it may be.
Im nervous about taking the car in fear it might be something big.

Thanks
