Why would you replace a camshaft and heads on a 350 due to low oil pressure?

Just because of low oil pressure, you wouldnt unless it's obvious the heads are fucked and you would know it. You have an chatter in the heads? Change the valves, springs, lifters and maybe the rocker arms with some good aftermarket parts. Cams aren't that expensive for 350's. I'd replace it with a better one.

Low oil pressure is usually the pump, sending unit, clogged ports, or a problem with the bottom end. (crankshaft)
Or if a rocker arm falls off and the oil won't drain through the ports as fast as its blown through the lifter.

Someone offered me a 350 thats a 010 block with flat top pistons low miles. Wanted to know what I'd give him for it. Dont know if he rebuilt it or someone else.
Here's what said about it.
I'd say it's in the bottom end. How far is the engine from you?

About 30min drive. I just offered him $50 for it without those $600 heads he bought from summit.
That's a good deal. For $50 you could get your own heads. If you have a limited budget put some 305 heads on it.

Take it apart and order a crank kit for it if it needs.
