A week ago as I was pulling into the garage (just after restarting the warm engine) the oil pressure light came on. Checked the level and it seemed a little low, but not much. Added oil.

Over the past week, the oil pressure light seems to come on at every other start but then goes off after 30-seconds or so. Anyone else seeing this?
 
Guzzi Oil pressure switches are prone to failure, Replace it ASAP in case it is not the the switch. Still happens then don't run the bike until it gets resolved. It could be your oil filter starting to come loose. In fact if your due for an oil change why not just do it now conversely if it was just done a little while ago then that would be a small red flag.

Also if you got water there at one time when the engine was cold where the switch connects to the wire connector there could be some corrosion creating the problem, check that first.

i agree,i also had to nip my connector for a tighter fit which sorted it.
I rode many miles on my griso with oil light showing i just made sure oil level was ok but this was my choice as i was certain it was just the switch playing up.
 
Try to reset the errors from the dashboard and the ecu, in case of being shown "by memory".
