> but there are pins on the layer too. This will confuse the fab house.

If you're talking about the fab drawing, the pins won't confuse the
fab house.  They want it that way - they use the pins for
registration.  Your outline should go on a separate layer named
"outline", and pcb will produce a separate gerber file called "fab".
Tell the fab house that this is the fab/assembly/layout (or whatever
they call it) drawing.  They'll know what to do with it.

If they don't, change fab houses.
