If it's still on the engine, get an oil pressure gauge and screw it into the block

If it's off the engine, and you're in doubt about it, then it's probably worth replacing it.

if it's off the car you can check flow by rotor clearance but valve break is in the lap of the gods unless you've got a spring tester, like me

there's an allen bolt on the LHS casing near the front of the engine that you can remove and screw into iirc or a sandwich plate.
