Default fuel pump pin falling out?

I have a strange issue. It seems that a pin on my fuel pump is working
its way out.

The pin I'm talking about is at the end of the arrow in this pictu

(but, instead, mine is sticking way out. Maybe an inch. I'll try to
take a picture of the actual fuel pump soon.)

What is that pin for and how can I get it to go back in and stay in?
Is it ever supposed to come out like that??

More details:
mechanical fuel pump (shorter alternator style, I think)
1971+ dual-port 1600cc engine
1965 karmann ghia
