the pump came with a gasket that hook the pick-up tube to the pump itself. i know that some chevy's would not use a gasket that hooks the pump to the block, is this the same way?

I have torn down and assemble a few and all have had the pump to block gasket. Think about it, it makes no sence to have one on the pick up tube and not the block.

This is a scan right out of the factory service manual. It clearly shows a gasket in both places. It's a pressurized passage, of course it has a seal.

there was not any leftovergasket on the old block or old oil pump... which makes me believe that there is no gasket supposed to be there
