Water pump recommendations

Ant specific recommendations on brand of water pump? Just found out mine is leaking. Guess I'll tackle the oil cooler seals at the same time.

I used Motorcraft. Bought it from Amazon. No complaints.

I got a new one at Autozone for my rebuild, 6 months ago. No issues at all...

I replaced the one on my '88 twice. I may have gotten them both from RockAuto, or the first was from Autozoo, I can't quite remember..
The first one was the cheapest I could find quickly, and it failed like a year and a half later leaking.
The second one was definitely from RockAuto, but also fairly priced and has been working great for several years. I might be able to find the brands out in my garage, but will be very honest and say I'm lazy and forgetful..... (so if anyone really cares, PM me to bother me until I figure it out...)
