Having some issues with a 3A since the fuel pump gave out last week. I have since sourced a new pump and began work on removing it which as all forums that I had read, took too long with the awkward angle of the right nut!
Something I had noticed upon first inspection, but did not realise the significance of until I had dismantled as much of the pump as possible, the rocker arm fulcrum pin has come loose and is to one side and no longer can be pushed back in (or pulled out from the angle). With the pin out to the side, this is now also being caught on the top of (what I think is) the oil gallery and so also cannot pull the pump off.
It seems like a bit of a unique problem from scrolling through forums, would anyone have any suggestions in removing the lower body of the pump?

I have attached some images of the issue.
