99% likely it's bullshit. Go somewhere else.

Yes it is. Don't just jump to conclusions before you find the exact problem. Oil pressure doesn't mean that you need to replace the motor. Try looking for a better mechanic.

Simple oil pressure test should give you a idea as to what is going on. If the oil PSI is too low , the most likely cause would be a clogged oil pick up tube from a gummed up engine.
