So there's no confusion the part in question is for an oil pump use on a 1963 259 V8.
What side of the cover faces the gears? The side with the curved edges or the side with the square edges? I ask this because the pumps I have both use the curved side towards the gears. If you need to know what I mean one side looks like it was the side facing the press that made it while the other looks like the under side. Sort of like a flat washer. One side is curved while the other side has sharper edges. On the two pumps I have both use the curved side towards the gears. I have a few thoughts but would like some consensus before I jump to a wrong conclusion, which is easier to do but not as productive.
