OMP functioning? (serched)

I've searched on this shitty question w/o luck, but hopefully there is a simple answer from a knowledgeable guru...

Since my engine was rebuilt utilizing an AEM EMS, I am convinced that the OMP is not functioning properly because I haven't had to add very much oil (before oil change) even after significant mileage.

Is there a simple way to check the functionality of the OMP?

Thanks in advance for tolerating a novice question!

Edit: Oh for ****'s sake, I misspelled "serched"

electronic OMP?
put the car front on stands
get underneath , and remove the rubber bung from under the OMP
with key on
( OEM ECU may need to see the engine running )
have somebody operate the throttle , whilst someone vies a torch up that bung hole
- the lever movement will be visible at one end of the stroke
( minimal flow )
and should move out of view with more TPS if wired up correctly with most TPS type controlled ECU's

else you can always remove a banjo bolt down at the OMP and count the flow at 2000 rpm
( and repeat with the wide TPS disconnected from side of TB and at full stroke )
and compare to see if operation is back to front or fixed
