I have a 55hp 1969 Johnson (55esl69a) with a leaking fuel pump.

It is leaking between the front cover and the middle piece... not the gasket on the filter, but somewhere behind. I saw on the fuel pump thread that the thing is apparently full of little springs and what not, so i am a little paranoid about tearing into it.
I was going to just buy a new fuel pump, but I was wondering if someone with repair experience might have a better idea.

If it must be replaced, iboats doesn't stock it, who would you recommend I buy from? I haven't dealt with any other online part retailers- preferably a cheap one!
