The parts you are working with is the "oil pump drive gear assembly". You have installed a new oil pump drive gear in your drive gear housing. When you installed the drive gear sleeve you have .032 end play.
Did you install a new sleeve? If you re-installed the old sleeve it may be worn. You could try using thrust washers to take up the space. Make sure they are thrust washers not just plane washers. ( You may know this but there are other people reading it)
