Replacement mechanical fuel pump

Hello: I have a 1963 223-6 in my 1960 and noticed a little oil squirting out of the fuel pump vent hole messing up that side of the engine. Time to replace the pump, I presume. So I bought a Precision from Oreilly’s that was supposed to work, but it didn't. After installing it the engine didn't idle well and quit once I revved it up to 3000 rpm. Thankfully I was able to return it and put the old one back on. Does anyone have a part number for a good, working, mechanical fuel pump? I’d rather not have to install an electrical one.

Thanks…

Ebay is definitely your parts friend when it comes to this. I was even able to find one for my more obscure 262 engine on eBay.

I do not own any eBay stock, nor do I have any financial interest in eBay lol
