New Fuel Pump Installation

I have an 87 40 hp Evinrude model #TLCUD. After de-winterizing boat I noticed that my fuel pump had a leak. After being told that there was no rebuild kit for the pump that was installed, I was sold a fuel pump part #438560. My problem is that the output nipple on the new pump is much smaller in diameter than the nipple on the old pump. I assume that this is a concern for fuel flow. The nipple does thread in, so maybe there is a way to exchange the nipple to a larger one? Thanks for any info.

There may be a rebuild kit for my old pump, but I do not know the model# of the pump. The pump isn't the same as the one that should have been installed.
