I think you have found the cause of your problem, now you need to find where the air is getting in.
Check the non return valves at the manifolds then at the oil line connections to and from the oil pump.

Re: lunched top end
When mine have been stood over the winter i always do the following
On first start-up, remove the pump cover and while the bike is just ticking over, hold the pump in the fully open
position.You will see any air bubbles pumping through the pipes. Once they stop you know its okay to use.
