If we are still talking 37 120 it just bolts up. Pump arm rides against an eccentric on the cam. Can't help on the location of gas line though.

Smart move going back to a mechanical pump. They all have arms of one sort or another; some ride directly on the cam and others via a push rod, so year and model or engine type, please
