It's possible, but the oil pump gear clearances should have been checked when it was rebuilt. If it spun a main bearing and the block was line honed you have to check the oil pump spacing with the crankshaft as well. If it was line honed a lot, it can cause the pump to be off center with the crank and it will wear one side of the pump housing. The first step is to verify that the pressure is actually what he thinks it is with a mechanical gauge. What are his pressures at cold idle, hot idle, hot cruising?
