High oil pressure on 190e 2.3

Hello,

I have a w201 2.3 and me and my friend have changed the exhaust manifold to a new one and replaced the lambda but when we started the car I saw that it had high oil pressure...
It have been standing in the garage for some months and I can believe that is something that may have caused the high oil pressure.
What do you think the cause is?

can upload a picture of the oil pressure gage showing 3/3.

When cold/warming up and anything above idle it should be at the 3 mark, only when the engine is hot and at idle will the pressure drop to 1.5-2

Did you never look at the guage before, because if its at 3 thats normal. So it has basically been sitting for absolutely no reason. Go drive it
