For a NEW pump, I found this using the reg number (R279 LRX) of my old '98 Puma:
https://www.eurocarparts.com/fuel-pump
Chuck in your reg number, then search under:
Car Parts,
Fuel & Engine Management,
Fuel Pumps & Parts.
There is a choice of a few.
I got only the pump and replaced that in to my existing sender unit:
https://www.eurocarparts.com/search/441590261
Be aware that the pump in the link above is for a 2002 MK5 Fiesta which SHOULD match for the same year of Puma. I have no idea if the actual pump itself differs across the years.
FINAL NOTE: Although Eurocarparts supplied me with the correct pump that I needed, I have known them to be pretty poor at getting parts right! Also there a differences in how these pumps/sender units mount on the tank, depending on the year.
Whatever you get make sure it is returnable just in case!

I can't supply fuel pumps, don't deal used any longer as I can't say how long they'll last. Most fail on the shelf. They really don't like being out of the car so not really possible to stock.
As for new - who knows - best solution is to strip down the assembly and fit just the pump motor. But the motor has no Ford part number so its difficult to check which specific item will suit. They may even be the same across all the production as the only difference on the Ford units is the chassis where it sits in the baffle and the orientation of the level sensor.
