Power Steering Pump Help!!

I am doing another engine swap and when I took the Power Steering Pump off my old engine, one of the mounts broke in 2 pieces. My local welder is closed for the weekend but....
Is there any replacement for mounting tabs without replacing the entire pump? These should have been a separate plate bolted to the pump not incorporated into the pump. It is off of my 91 350SD "rodbender". The pump is a Vickers Tandempump.

The 90-91 350SD/L is gaining reputation as a pump breaker as well. From what I've read, you need a new tandem pump. Yours is no good as a core exchange either. Check with forum member Mekanic who just went through this but with a non-tandem pump. Maybe an 87 300TD tandem pump will work. If so, David Hendy in the parts forum might be able to help.

Okay, I will try that. I do have two more pumps but one is not a tandem and the other uses smaller hoses.
Would the smaller hoses make a difference?

Sorry about that, I was out transferring WVO for processing.
OMG, you should see all the Mercedes parts I have everywhere!!!! I have 2 rodbenders complete with IP, turbos, pumps, compressors, everything. I have an entire 87 300SDL complete, without the engine (it's in my 91 350SD now).
That's why I was trying to make hoses and/or pumps fit.
