You can get a genuine Walbro GSL392 pump for about $105. I am running one and it seems fine however I have heard some people who absolutely hate them. If you are ever thinking about E85 definitely go with a BOSCH 044 pump.

Just get the Bosch 044 and the curved adapter from Lindsey. You will have to remove a spacer between the pump and the back flow valve to fit it and I would suggest draing the tank to inspect the strainer sock and rubber gasket. Mike

Looking at the one sitting on my desk, it has no bosch part number stamped on it.
It is in a white box with a part number 0580 254 044 on the box.
Normally, bosch is in a yellow box with "bosch" all over it. However, as far as a well made, well packed piece goes, it definitely looks well made and well packed (vacuum packed in oil)
What this almost appears to be is an OEM pump made by Bosch that is not yet marked and somehow obtained in between the two places.
Of course, I cannot confirm that. But if it is a knock-off it seems to be a pretty good one.
