It seems like the tolerances are so tight that getting them lined up properly while the engine is in the car is next to impossible.
Words in bold are very true, once the pump is perfectly aligned & lubed they slide into place easily if the drive tang is positioned properly. Be POSITIVE they right side up not inverted.
