Fuel Pump Question
When had motor cleaned on the 51 F1 V-8 Flathead, the machine shop lost the rod from the block that pushes the fuel pump. Sense I am new to this forum, I would like some suggestions on where to find parts for the truck and also, what would this rod be called in looking for a replacement. I am not sure but think this is a 239 engine. Thanks for suggestions. Harley

Im sure there others too but can't think of off the top of my head.
the very first flathead I took apart had 1 and a half push rods in it! old one must have broke in half and when they replaced it somehow fell into the engine?? took me a bit to figure out what that was and where it had come from
good luck
