That normally happens when someone has previously removed the Fuel Injection Pump and re-inserted the Fuel Injection pump without centering the Kidney Slots in relationship to the Bolt Holes or Studs.

An other issue can be they inserted the Fuel Injection Pump at the correct Degrees and managed to bump the IP Camshaft to rotate it when the inserted the Fuel Injection Pump (the very thing the Timing/Locking Pin is supposed to prevent).

Anyway that is my opinion on it.
