Bored of reading now.

If its not broken why fuck with it?

If your adamant, get to a scrappy with a suitable age car in it and start pulling shit out.

It could be something as simple as a pulse damper given the relative proximity of the fuel pump!

the reason I wanted to get rid of the electric fuel pump was because of the mess they had made installing it , odd lengths of fuel pump all over the place and using a primer pump as a pipe connector etc
