when i built my 342 i used a reverse rotation edelbrock water pump, but i wanted to simplify the serp belt set up so i switched to a standard direction pump and it leaked. i found out later that the new timing cover i was using was actually for a truck. if you look on the cover the water outlets will point in different directions make sure the plat on the water pump matches the timing cover. if it doesnt like in my case i used the backing plate from the edelbrock wich has round holes and will mate to any of the timing covers.
just thought i would pass this on incase you run into a problem.
