Default Fuel Pump with evap fuel system

Can anyone point me at an economical source for a 1997 Disco fuel pump? With evaporative fuel system. Mine has 2 plugs on top plus the extra tube.(some pretty old threads here for an old vehicle, so most sources I've seen are out of date)
Thanks!

do you need the entire contraption? or just the motor/pump? The pump is a $25 item. Airtex 3270

Yes, I will need the entire assembly. Mine has cracks in the plastic that I won't trust to last once I start to work on it.

There are a variety of prices and brands available. check out rockauto.com and LRDIRECT.com . LRDirect is out of the UK but prices including shipping can be quite good. Shipping is generally < 1 week. Part # WFX101020

If you're in there, it is best to replace the sealing ring as well. They too are specific to the AEL system.

By the way, I have read in another thread that a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire fuel pump is identical. Does anyone here know about this?

Not sure about the Pontiac.

One other way is something like this....
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Land-Rover-...4AAOSw6fFderUr

That seller is Will Tillery a well known supplier of quality 'recycled' parts. I've bought a bunch of stuff from him. You can also reach him at willtillery@roverguy.com
