How about waterpump alignment pins, for something that seems critical to waterpump alignment they are hard to find. I'm working on an SEI116 sterndrive but everything I've read says use same parts and steps as mercruiser.

So, I just replaced my water pump a couple weeks ago and didn't use any pins. I was just extremely careful to align the components as I stacked them. I did however, see a video where a guy made some. He went to the hardware store and bought two bolts with the same thread form (maybe 1/4-20) and cut the heads of the bolts off...
Aligning then securing with 2 of the bolts first or using bolts seems like it would work considering there is specific hole locations. I think the official alignment pins are tapered, but cutoff bolts should work. Cant believe these pins are so hard to find.
I made some pins for my last impeller. They were nice to have, but not critical. Not worth paying for when you can make them with a hack saw and two $0.30 bolts.
