Thinking out loud here. You say you shut down engine at bottom of the green oil pressure which should be adequate lube. No mention of engine running badly. You didn’t say if committed to a tear down. If find oil leak and repair it, maybe a really good inspection (with good results) will get back up and going sooner than February? Perhaps a quick decision point would be pulling the filter this weekend and looking for metal. Then checking for cracks (case, cylinder). Might quickly categorize as major vs a leak repair and back into the air sooner.
