Welcome again - some pics of your car would be a nice start. I've a 66 911 so might be able to help with some questions but there are many more knowledgeable guys on this forum. What do you want to know??

hi and welcome
Green Light..Oil pressure light.. Check the oil as a starter
Also check the colour of the wire onto the green light as it could be the dynamo light and the oil pressure light have been swapped over.
I have a 66 912 also. Good cars very much under rated.
Regards
Sean

I think your car is probably knackered - I'll take it off your hands - say - 10 grand !!

Your belt slipping would normally be the red light (not getting charge to the battery).
Firstly check the wiring and connects for the pressure sensor. Next you can check/replace the sensor. Might be worth while opening the filter canister and checking to see if you have any shinny bits in there!
