It just means that your engine has been replace or rebuilt. You can't use the 
72-3 oil pump, but you can use a pump made for the flat cam. If you use an 
oversize pump, you may have to clearance the rear mount crossbar so 
things will fit properly.

How wide are the gears in the old pump?

What is the engine number stamped onto the case?
