Some Oil Questions (burning or losing)

A few weeks ago I replaced the snout on my supercharger. When I removed the supercharger, I noticed a lot of oil (fresh unburnt but worn) under the supercharger on top of the intake manifold. It was motor oil, not SC oil. Also a few days ago, one of my cats got plugged and I drove around like that for a few days it started to rattle so I had them both removed. A few weeks back my oil pressure gauge sat lower than usual (on "o"), but then went back to where it usually sits (on the "m").

Now today, I got the low oil light on the VMM and the oil pressure gauge once again sat lower than usual (in between "n" and "o". I was under the car looking for the knock sensor and moved the wires on the sensor in the oil pan a bit so I don't know if I might have messed it up; I doubt it. I checked the oil and it was low. Now my question are these:

Would the clogged cat cause the car to throw out oil from somewhere or perhaps burn it? If I have an oil leak under the SC but above the intake manifold, what could be possibly leaking? Could messing around with the wire possibly cause the low oil light?
