<VV> Oil pump suction tube

There was/is a tool to pull the suction tube and screen out of the block
and reinstall a new one such as the Otto parts deep sump pickup tube.
Clark's says it is 'discontinued".  Does anyone have a tool like this
they would sell or loan to me?  I think the Otto Parts suction tube is
larger in diameter so the tool must have two different sizes.  How do
you guys remove or install the tube?  I'm not too concerned about
removing the stock one as it will probably go in the trash but I don't
want to dent or bend the Otto pickup trying to pound it in.  I suppose
heating the block or freezing the tube would help on the install
process.
Thanks, Clark Hartzel
