What helps is to get a Punch or scribe and scribe marks on the pump flange where it meets the engine flange so you can get an idea of movement.

I highly believe in this method....
There's a tool that is shown in the FSM that attaches to the IP and engine block and has an nut that will adjust the pump in either direction without the need to undo the IP lines. Now if there was some way of getting it.
