which fuel pump do you mean?  just phone Euro Car Parts and ask for a pump for a G40/PY engine code.  You need to tell them if it's the lift pump (which is in the fuel tank) or in-line pump (which is the thinner of the cylinders under the car).

G40/PY engine code

^^Thats the important bit^^   People have converted 1l and 1.3 CLs before but not changed the fuel pump not realising they are different.

a bosch 044 will work but you'll have to make your own mounting for it and probably cut off the wiring connector and put a new one on.  proper g40 pump is very expensive.

Bosch 044 is massively overrated for the application - it's 300l/h @ 5bar. Stock is only 75l/h @ 3bar, so you'll be working your regulator and return lines hard.

For reference, Polo SPI pumps are rated for 104l/h, but at only 1.1bar.
