Maximum oil pressure would be the setting on the system pressure relief valve/spring.

Without pressure, there is no flow. The cooling passages in an oil cooler/system and the frictional viscosity of hot lube oil pose some resistance. This means you should use oil line material that safely exceeds the above numbers. Do not be tempted to use low pressure, heat or petroleum sensitive plastic/vinyl/polyethylene tubing.
