Could this be caused by a clogged injector by chance?

I do see that bolt to the right sticking out a bit but I don't think that is causing the issue either

Awesome! You are the man! Thanks so much. Pretty sure this mystery is solved!

Now that I'm all broke rebuilding this thing...whose got a spare pump :p.

LOL I was being a smart ass...Glad it brought a smile to your face!

You are a genius! I now remember I over tightened a bolt on the bearing retainer plate (part #90) and broke off one of the hex bolts...there are two of them and one I sheared off but forgot about it in my haste to get it back togeather. Man I tell ya little things like this really come back to...

Yes, all came from old block. I did do the rebuild.

I assume that those numbers get stamped in when assembled indicating all the features ect...the question is are there actually different blocks and what varies?

it's blank no numbers
