AD3.152 oil pressure

What oil pressure would a healthy Perkins powered 135 have when warmed up to 180 degrees normal operating temp @ 1500 RPM? What should I expect at idle?

Thinking of buying a new to me 135 and am wanting to judge relative engine health

My 135 perkins diesel pegs to full oil pressure the whole time it is running. Never had any problems. Original gauge. It's probably been like that for 20 years, I've only ran it about 100 hours.
