Finally dragged my samples out of the shed. You have a 56 front pump in your 55. 55 pumps have 16 holes through the plate (counting the screw holes), 56 has 15. The critical hole is at the 12 o'clock position in my photo. Direct pressure comes in the hole marked "D" and in 55 comes back out the hole at 12 o'clock to fill the space at the back of the stub shaft on the convertor and thence to the direct clutch.

While you have your trans that far apart I would check your shafts and bushings. Factory clearance was .003", I find you can go to about .006, but after that you do not get much satisfaction.
