My Fuel Pump Housing is F***ed: Any ideas? (Mk3, inline pump, repair housing?)

Hi folks, had a hot start issue, got it narrowed down to a weak and dying fuel pump. My screws were seized on there, ended up taking the pump housing out completely and it's in bad shape.

Any ideas on what to do? A new housing is $500+ on eBay which is insane. A friend recommended a few options:

  1. MK3 tank swap, ditch the two fuel pump system entirely. (Seems expensive and overkill for my 1.8 8v.)

  2. Run an inline system, just buy an aftermarket pump that doesn't use a housing.

  3. Try to repair my old housing.

Anyone have any other options or ideas/tips?

Thanks in advance.❤️
