What Water Pump Is This i ordered a rover v8 pump off ebay but the pulley is in the wrong place, anyone tell me what one i need to order

Not sure exactly what you are asking, but that looks like a '4x4' pump to me, i.e. off a Range Rover.
The pulley is removable.

I don't know how many different actual pumps there are though.

You need to say which timing cover you have as this will determine the type of pump you need.
As ChrisJC stated, the photo is of an early range rover (4 wheel drive) which has the pump high up to get the fan out of water etc when off roading.
P5/P6 and SD1 pumps are set lower and then the later pumps with serp drive belts are roughly in the same location but run counterclockwise.

it came out of a snatch land rover, but not sure what timing cover it would be

So you are saying that the new pump won't fit the timing cover? If that is the case, then you have a 'car' pump, and need the appropriate '4x4' pump. All the '4x4' pumps will fit that timing cover, but there are variations in the shaft over the years.

Chris.

no the pump fits the timing cover but the pulley is in the wrong place,

Rimmers list just about all the variations....!:
