WTB High volume oil pump pickup screen or entire pump

[1970S2]

Just getting all my engine parts sorted out for the Gordini build, thought I would check out the oil pump I bought from a guy in Montreal , looks like the pick up screen is too short, its about 1 1/4 inches too short, I don't want to chance starving my engine in a hard corner, the pick up from my original 821 block will not fit, bolt pattern is different , and tube size is smaller, hoping someone out there  has the correct pickup or the proper hole pump housing, I already have the new larger oil pump shaft and gear, if not, I will need to modify this one .....thanks in advance/.

The pick-up is steel.  You could braze in a longer curved tube but cutting up the short one and using the long one as a pattern.

as I stated in  my blurb, if I can't get a proper pick up I will modify mine, I will tig weld a new extension ...thanks
