What is it catching on? Have you tried fitting it from the back first, take a pic of the underneath where the sump is going to be fitted, It might be catching on the pipe?
Does it have a 2.0l engine fitted, look on top of the block left hand side, It should say EJ20 or EJ25, If it says 20, there is your problem, You`ll need a 2.0l sump.

There's only the oil drain tube at the back of the sump thats got to locate into its hole in the block, these can on new sumps be slightly out of line, but should still locate, putting the alignment of the bolt holes out.
Have you fitted the same pickup pipe as was fitted with the original sump in the picture ?

The sump had i slight crack in it and had been repaired with some putty stuff plus it was leaking from the back , hope it is just a 20l sump as will get onto scooby technics in the morning or subaru, that pic was taken while cleaning the block so maybe it was just that? We have been told the pistons have been forged and had a few G spent on it.
