ZL1 Camaro #1 [possibly also #2] had an aluminum pump; #1 had a pilot engine built at Flint. Legend has it the pump bearing loosened in durability testing. Later production Camaro ZL1 engines had production 'long' iron pumps painted black.

Corvettes used the 'short' pump. Could be the ZL1s used an aluminum version of it.
