 The small split pin(about 1/8" diameter) is on the back and gets pushed into the space for the distributor shaft.
I just noticed after looking at the picture for the pressure relief, that the sliding steel piece(the 2nd item from the left inn the pic Tim obtained) is facing the wrong direction. The hollow portion faces front with the bulge on the back to capture the spring.
It would have been better to have removed the timing belt from the sprocket and use a drill to turn the pump to see if you got pressure(this is the way I pre-pressurize all my engine rebuilds).
big question: did you get good pressure before?
