Default Fuel pump 350 crate block 10066036

A friend just called and wants me to come over after the New Year to help him replace a fuel pump in a 350 Crate. I haven't seen it yet but does anyone know if they have that front bolt( that you replace with a longer one) used to hold up the pump rod during replacement like a 327 does? Any input would be appreciated.

Even if it doesn't have the bolt hole, just slap some heavy grease on the rod and push it up against the lobe. If you bring the motor to TDC you can push the rod up the maximum to get it out of the way
