Regarding the pump element, there should be a copper crush washer below the delivery valve. It’s very specific and a real pain to find. Are you sure thats a rubber o ring? If so, that’s insane/hilarious and would certainly affect the timing of the corresponding cylinder.
I do not see how I could be a tooth off at this point. With the new chain installed the mark on the camshaft is very close to being spot on with the crank at O/T. Changing cam timing one tooth either way puts the cam mark way off, much like it was way back when I originally discovered that the timing was off (old chain still installed).
I think I just didn't get the pump displaced correctly.
