The block, washers (under the bolt heads) , and I believe sleeves or bushings (over the bolt shafts) are all part of the installation package used to thermally isolate the pump from the heat of the crankcase, obviously to minimize the chance for vapor lock in stressful situation. The block is dark, almost black, made of some polymeric material, perhaps paper or fabric reinforced. Thickness is about 0.390" with a thin paper gasket on both sides.
