You might check with Kanter. A few years back when I needed a 356 pump they had a repro that would fit many engines used over several pre 51 years but I don't remember which engines or how far back. When talking with one of their Packard guys he said that particular pump was able to fit the different engines because the differentiating factor between pumps listed in parts manuals was the fan hub diameter and how far it was pressed onto the shaft. They had the bare pump repro'd and pressed the hub on in house before shipping to the customer. If you have the senior engine then probably out of luck but if yours is a variation of the 245, 282 and 356 block maybe worth a call.
