The inlet (lower hose) is on the drivers side on the early LA's ('67 & '68) engine. These pumps used to be available at NAPA.
The later LA's ('69 or '70 on) were long snout and the inlet on the passenger side. However I've heard that the RV version of the engine did have a special short snout water pump, not sure of the model to look for or the availability. I read someplace where the long snout could be modified and shortened with a lathe and new end bearing, but.
