The oil light is for low oil pressure. Check the oil level immediately. And stop using the high mileage oil, that is for Volvos that have 300K miles. You should be using 5 or 10W30 synthetic only.

It is possible that the filter valve is stuck and now not filtering any oil. This could ruin the oil pump, so I suggest putting on a new filter tomorrow.
