'55 36 hp engine w/ VJU 4BR8 dizzy

the vac advance bumps into the fuel line from the pump to the carb. The line is rigid and the place where they bump looks to be too close to the pump to allow a bend to get the line out of the way.

Is this usual?

Nope, it's because your distributor gear is off. From your other thread about your distributor not being clocked correctly.
