Fuel pump pushrod?

Thanks guys for helping a :newb:. Yeah, I was on youtube and saw a guy changing the pump. It was a chevy. The gasket for the pump was a pita to get off. I used some permatex gasket remover that didnt do anything but remove the engine paint :angry5:. I ended up scraping most of it off with my fingernail since I couldn't get my scraper down there. This was the worst part of the entire job. You guys rock.:prayer:
