Others may disagree with this modification but here it is,whenever I am doing this job I take the bolts to the shop grinder,taper the ends and then follow up with the wire wheel(kind of like sharpening a pencil,but only cut in about 3/16 of an inch)after doing this it is amazing how easily the bolts line them selves up.I have been using this method for years and have not yet cross threaded.I would not recommend filing the holes in the pump.
good luck
