Timing, at lest on the rotary style pump Eric posted would most likely be controlled inside the pump. The Bosch VE diesel injuction pump, a rotary pump similar to the one picture has a timing advance built in. The ve has a built in fuel transfer pump and when its pressure rises due to increased RPM, an internal piston rotates the cam ring, advancing the timing.
