If you need to use a mechanical fuel pump then yes you need to swap timing covers, and you will also have to move the fuel pump escentric that is bolted to the front of the cam gear.

The rotation direction of the water pump may be different, which would require a different timing cover as well...

The water pump is diff because of the reviresd rotaion but the pump is a sealed unit so why would change of the cover be be needed

The transition from the water pump to the block is different - the ports are tapered and canted (see picture if the link comes through the site's filter)
