Default pull fuel pump relay after oil pickup tube change?

I was wondering if some of the more experienced mechanics could give me an opinion on something. (I did try searching on this and found nothing)

I'm changing the oil pickup tube. The car hasn't been run in awhile. Do you recommend pulling the fuel injection relay and running the starter to build up oil pressure, before starting the engine? Or is it ok to just start it and run a little dry for a second?

just start her up. If you're really worried, disconnect or remove the coil packs.
