I have a pair of 2017 f200’s. I recently noticed after coming off a hard run when idling back to the dock the port motors oil pressure dropped to 1 bar while starboard stated in the middle on my square command link gauges. Anyone see this before? I would assume they should react the same. Non alarms went off. Thanks !
 
Probably something that needs looking into. Did you happen to look at the motor temperature to see if both motors were within range?
Regardless, when was the oil filter last changed? and of course is the oil level within spec.

Does the oil on the dip stick after a run, look normal?

100hr service was just done when I purchased them. The temps held steady in the middle. The oil looked great when I checked it
 
I don't know if you want to take this route but you could swap the oil pressure sender between the motors and see if the issue moves to the other motor. That would indicate a bad sensor.
Access to the YDS software would tell you what the actual pressures are. I assume both motors have the same spec oil but anything is possible.

I just ordered a yds kit. I should mention that once I put it into gear and increased the rpm’s the pressure went back to the middle.
