So I'm finally getting around to the pump that's been leaking a while now, (much more time on my hands) but I'm faced with a bunch of options to choose from. I dont want buy a cheap remanufactured just to keep replacing the pump, but are the "new" ones any more reliable?
Napa brand
Part #381058n
240 dollars for pump and resivor, no idea what the real brand is
Comes without resivor, 35 dollars cheaper
Advanced Auto
Part # 96-8002
300 dollars for Cardone brand, cant find a lot of reviews on this either, manager said they started carrying it in the fall. Anyone use this? A bit more expensive.

About 180 bucks, can get either through amazon, (bad reviews) or Genos Garage (better reviews) says it is a new unit as well.
At this point, 260k miles, leaking, and the oil smells burnt and metallic, I need to just replace the unit. Any advice would be appreciated, I'm looking at the cardone one, but it's a bit more expensive, and may not be any better than most.
