Default 2000 softail bobber

Hey all, new to the sight but not to enjoying harleys. I have a 2000 custom soft tail bobber, I was on the last ride of the season and first the starter gave up so after my buddies pushing me and getting it going I only made it a few miles and notice something wasn't right, looked down and I had no oil pressure so I shut it off immediatly had it towed home. I automatically thought my oil pump was in my crank case but looking at it now I believe its right beside my derby cover, so I guess my question is, is that my oil pump with the oil lines going to it or just where the lines hook up and can I replace it with out tearing to much of my bike apart.

The oil pump is in the cam chest.
