Another good quality and fairly cheap electronic replacement for the SU 
fuel pump is this:


Low pressure SU replacement Fuelflow 12v electronic fuel pump 15LM12


Selling on eBay for about $60.

It is made in New Zealand and also sold under the brand name Moprod and 
Ecco.

It would be an excellent spare and you can use the same fittings as on 
your original SU AUF301 fuel pump.
