Broke Injection pump Timing Device BOLT!!!

Guys, I'm in a serious state of hurt. Replaced the number one delivery valve crush washer last night at aroud 11 PM and really- I mean REALLY - f..ked up. I put the delivery valve and holder in upside down.

I know I deserve every admonition and I-told-you-so, but right now I need some help. I cranked it a lot last night before I gave up, and then around 2AM while trying to go to sleep, I realized what I did wrong. I put everything back the way it should be, with a new crush washer, and it still wouldn't start. Cracked the injection lines - no fuel.

I thought I must have destroyed the IP, but the problem may be before the fuel even gets to the IP. I loosened the line from the lift pump to the big (secondary?) fuel filter, and when using the hand pump, fuel comes flying out. When cranking the engine - no fuel at all, so it sounds like I ruined the lift pump (at least). I'm probably going to take the lift pump off in a few minutes, but would really appreciate some advice.

I think I finally did it this time.
