I know that oil pumps are the bases for discussion, but:

I do have a type for and a type 1 pump,
But I like the Idea of having a type 4 pump, that lines up and is made out of aluminum,
like this one.

It has the same expansion rates like the block.
Has anyone used it?
What is the QUALITY?

Before purchasing a new steel cover plate, L will bolt on the lapped cover plate that was badly non flat and is now true flat. Any thoughts on how much torque given that it is aluminum?

Update: thoroughly cleaned the mating surface of the pump - simple green, water, paper towels, and the face plate flattennd on wet sandpaper on glass. Carefully painted on 1/8th inch wide thin smear of sealant (Gascacinch per CB Performance) on face plate surface perimeter. Quickly and very carefully positioned the face plate on the pump and torqued the four bolts -- also carefully (10 lbs/ft?). Waited one hour. Then ran the engine for about 10 minutes at idle - oil pressure started at 40 psi dropping to 30 at warm temp. No oil leak! Took the car for a test drive - temp rising to 180, idle oil pressure at 15 psi. No oil leak! Problem solved. Thanks for your advice.
