I'll post this here as well in case anybody wants to see it. I got the Injection Pump out and I don't have a basket to hold the IP gear/Timing Device so I took the advice of Maxbumpo and tried a soup can. I cut a large soup can into a "C" shape to cradle the gear. Worked like a charm and didnt even move a bit. Pump slid out and back in effortlessly first try, and car satarted (after many cranks) right up with no leaks! Hopefully a side effect of getting the timing back on point will be lower engine temps. I suspect the retarded timing was causing me to run hot. Going through mountains I would hit 110° and it took a long time to come down. Thanks again all! BTW I used the Liqui Moly Hydraulic Lifter Addative and it did quiet down the valve train a little bit to my surprise.

The photos can be seen here....
