Carter Piston Lift pump Install ????s.

I didnt realize these pumps were so BIG. (See pics.) So much for "Bolt on" mod. I have two questions. #1- What is that molded plastic thing over the lifter cover? The outlet of the pump hits it before the mounting flange seats. #2- The outlet is at an angle and higher so the fuel line does not line up.
What is the best way to deal with these problems? Or do I have the wrong pump?
