I use it like this:

In virt-manager, go through: New -> Import existing disk image ->
Forward -> Fill in /dev/sda2 -> 3x Forward -> Finish

In case you really want it as a 'lun', not a 'block', you can click
"Customize before installation", remove the existing disk, add nex
hardware, storage and fill in '/dev/sda2' and select Virtio lun or
Virtio SCSI lun or whatever you wish.

Is anything from this method missing in your virt-manager version?
