Prior to removing the pump, before you loosened any bolts/nuts/screws, did you loosen the pump shaft-lock screw, remove it's C-notched spacer, and then SNUG the screw back down, thus locking the shaft position in the pump ??
Then, when you got everything put back together, did you loosen the shaft-lock screw, re-insert the C-notched spacer, and snug it back ??

Congratulations; you have lost pump timing.
Did you scribe the key-way location on the pump-housing before moving anything ??
If so, then you are only half-a-lobe off; if not, then good luck.

did you have the engine at TDC before you pulled the pump?
if so retiming the pump is easy you line up the keyway with the tick/scrib line on the face of the pump which is in about the 5o'clock area

As long as you didn't move the IP gear in relation to the cam gear, and you install the pump and the key on the pump goes in the key-way on the gear, then the timing will be close enough to start. As long as the key is in there it will be close enough.
