The E351S is "short Ford WP' with a clockwise rotation, designed to work typically with a V-belt type drive (serpentine belt drive is generally CCW rotation) - your front cover porting has to be compatible with this WP wrt coolant port orientation.
As far as pump outlet plumbing to rad, (even if it's on the opposite side) that should be a straightforward exercise .
If your engine front drive components reflect the above, you shouldn't have a problem adapting the E351S to your coolant plumbing.
