I'm a little shaky on this and no engine out and lying around to check on, but as I recollect things the pump bracket is pretty rugged and not likely to be bending.
It IS bolted to the block at a few points. Are all bolts in, and not stripped?
If bolt at back is not there or loose, the tension on the serp belt could be bending the forward bolts (into the block), is my line of thinking.
How much can you see, up past the steering rack and thru the filth? It would be a shame to remove your new pump just to peer in there but it might have to come out.
