12 PSI is normal pressure according to the manual.
They will run for years on a lot less pressure than that.

The pleated paper filters are bad, the rag and waste filled filters are the good ones.

Some people replace the factory oil pressure gauge with a 0-60 gauge. That don't work. You need a 0-30 at most to be able to see the needle move with a warmed up engine.

Did the WD45 have the oil pressure regulator on the end of the cam shaft like the D14 or D15?
