I'd say you have covered your bases very well and have nothing to worry about. Let the dealer do their thing and you'll get the bike back with the latest and greatest oil pump, backing plate, and probably a new top end.
I installed the latest revision of oil pump and backing plate as of December 2019 and so far (1000 miles) I've had no problem, even running up to red line.
Good Luck!

May I ask if you are running a Twin Cooled or an Oil Cooled M8. I am asking because I am currently doing a performance upgrade on an Oil Cooled M8 and I chose the S&S Oil Pump and Cam Chest before I learned of the updated parts. I've heard that "Sumping" is more common in the Twin Cooled models
