    just use the cover to pattern one out of gasket material

    conversions are easy to do

    some use a bypass cover of more modern engines which have a place to mount a OMC square pump

    another method which works fine is this video (plug one channel)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtG4M7ye1N8 with this method I mounted the B&S pump on a triangular bracket bolted to the rear bracket

    some will just put a small plate OVER the top (center drilled)_ bypass to mount a “lightly off-set” square pump.. it works fine also but don’t forget to block the air pressure nipple behind the carb. use a short piece1.5” of fuel hose with a big screw in in it. or small bolt secure with tyewraps.

    and some would never modify a pressure system which are fine unless the tank leaks or looses pressure.

    up to you
