Narrative:
It was a normal approach and landing. While taxiing to the gate I noticed many EICAS yellow warning lights come on and saw the left engine oil pressure falling. I stopped the airplane; then saw the left engine low oil pressure red warning and noted the left egt at 500C and climbing. I moved the left fuel lever to cutoff and; referring to the engine shutdown checklist; shut down the engine. No other issues or concerns. We taxied to the gate uneventfully where we called maintenance. No emergency was declared.
