Trim pump motor & solenoid bracket

[mvd2bze]

The boat I recently purchased (my first boat that is all mine) had a loose solenoid bracket at the trim pump motor. When I try to reattach it, it isn't sitting right, like there should be a stud to space it off of the pump housing. When I test fit it, I have the wiring behind it, and it still isn't enough to keep the bracket from leaning if I were to tighten the bolt.

Can someone post a pic of their pump/solenoid assembly showing the correct hardware and attachment order? Is it Pump->ring terminals->bracket>washer->bolt?

Thanks!

P.S I can't figure out how to use the mercruiser manual section. They seem to have a rather substantial gap in model years, but some DO say all models. Should I just use #2 and assume it's for me?

Crud. I was tired and trying to fire off a post before my head hit the keyboard...

87 mercruiser 3.0 130
Oildyne plastic motor metal pump/reservoir
Motor has notched top for the horizontal part of the bracket that two screws (missing for now ) would fasten to.

I couldn't take a pic because I had just reassembled the pump motor (seized brass bushings) and my hands were too contaminated to hold my phone. I found this pic that obliquely shows the plsted solenoid bracket on the right side of the pump. It isnt exactly what I have, but the motor and bracket appear to be identical.

Thanks
