Just thought I would let everybody know, if you are rebuilding the fuel pump on this motor and also need carb parts, I found a place that has virtually everything for these carbs. also, be very careful, if you are putting the fuel pump back on while the carb is still on the motor, you have to hold 5 gaskets, 4 screws and monkey around getting the fuel line hooked back up to the bottom of the fuel pump, not easy for a guy with fat fingers to do. I finally ended up putting a piece of blue painters tape across the screw heads and taped to the side of the fuel pump body, this held the screws in all the way, and you hang the gaskets in the right order on the screws, then carefully match up to the screw holes in the carb, peel the tape back carefully on one screw head at a time and get it started in the carb, then pull the tape completely off and firm them up. Took me a little while to figure that one out!
