Rotated engine upright, Put in Cam and lifters with Rev Lube. Then did the rookie move with the Oil Pump Drive: off align. Magnet gotit. Misaligned again and walked away. Really never messed up the oil pump drive install twice.

If the retaining tabs are still on the oil pump driveshaft, and the driveshaft isn't installed properly on the oil pump, I doubt you're going to be able to get it in the correct location now. Likely you'll have to pull the pan back off and loosen the oil pump bolts up, then lift the pump enough to line the shaft with the pump.
