Oil pump dimensions FE390

I can't seem to find any drawing on the net that would tell me how far down from the block the oil pump hangs excluding pick up.

3 5/8ths" it would seem.

I got out to the shed, been a while that plow thing is really taking up some time. ::)
I measured two pumps.
The Melling M-57AHV which is the biggest Melling you can get. This is a blue printed job.
And the Sealed Power 41173 which is probably the smallest pump you can get. Speculating there though.
They are sitting on the screws that hold the plate on.

I probably have one like yours on the right. I measured around 3 5/8ths, but I was eyeballing. I assume outside of external $$$ oil pump that's as good as it gets. I have an FT oil pan that I think I will cut and modify to around 3 3/4" or so for the first 12". Just trying to squeeze a tall motor into a short space ;-)
