GM had so many mounts through the years for those pumps, odds are against you. Some brackets are slotted so the bolt tightens into the pump bracket like the one you pictured, and there's some that have slots on the pump bracket that the bolt tightens into the bracket on the engine.
You can always fab new brackets . . .
Hmmm, does it really matter Wichita one I get? I just meet the thing to stick to the block
Duct tape will take care of that ==roll

I was thinking glue, but yea, that will do.
On a big block the power steering pump pivots on a bracket that bolts to the block in the 2 bolt holes next to the timing cover & has a bracket on the front of the pump that has a slot in it that tightens down on the water pump.

I'd be very grateful if you could measure the distance from the back of the bracket, to the center of the V groove.
