I went about five months with a bad OPS. I just switched it out this weekend.
If your oil lines are good, then you should be okay. The only risk is that you won't know if you have zero pressure.

FYI, check the sticky at the top of the C5 Tech forum for page upon page of oil pressure sensor problems and solutions. I opted for a few brass adaptors (metric to standard NPT) and a brass Buick sensor. So far (today!) so good.

Mine's been out for about 6 months. The Chevy dealer wanted around $350.00 to replace it.
