The oil pump is inside the timing cover. But do not see any place for the oil pressure relief valve to go.

That dose not look like the one I have. The one I have has two holes on the bottom. One has a metal cap in it the other slightly larger. But nothing inside either one of them.3.3liter engine the timing cover has water pump made on it.

I tmay be that thee is to much bearing clearance in it causing this . you can try a different oil filter like a Purolator or wix or napa sometimes that is the problem. also try switching to 10w30 oil if you aren't already.

you may be getting in over your head now, the crank has to be measured to make sure there is nowear there and engine bearings will need to be replaced. other wise pull the engine an dput what is called a crank kit in it which is another crank and bearings , that is assuming the rods have not spun a bearing etc. if that has happened then you may as well rebuild motor.
