Just go to Aliexpress and buy your electric pump from there from a middleman who is much closer to the factory, and charges a noticably lower markup.
Sorry to hear this, it could be due to a diesel spill. I sometime see vehicles that have been filled to the brim and then it as it turns a corner...
I am not as confident as you on this one. At best ... I hope it would not be counter-productive....
Looks like a good approach to me....
