Didn't look like any corrosion. Probably original pump though.
I did find a lot of sand under the seat.
I also suspected that this car may have been under water.

Steven, any crud or material inside the tank? If the pump is out and the tank isn't full, you can swab the bottom with a lint free cloth secured to a stick to see whats at the bottom of the tank.

At least you won't wonder later.
