MG MGA - Moss fuel pump fittings

I bought one of those solid state SU fuel pumps from Moss and am trying to hook it up to the pipes. I also bought two sets of the elbows (Moss 375-038) to hook to it. One elbow fit the inlet side just fine. The inlet fitting on the pump appears to be a 1/2-20 tapered pipe thread. The other elbow will not go on the outlet side fitting- It seems to be a 1/2-20 but a straight thread that needs a compression fitting and all the compression fittings that I can find are tapered pipe threads-- What am I doing wrong??
thanks, and Happy Thanksgiving.
