I wouldn't sweat that at hot idle.
I have seen older motors(like mine) that are loose and that is about right for hot idle. Let's wait for some LT4 gurus to chime in to be safe but as i wrote it wouldn't alarm me.

I notice my LT4 doing that, it gets up to 40+ once I rev it. I can't wait to put this animal on the road

I've never seen my stock '88 (131k) L98 pressure below 22 on the hottest of summer days.
