Changed last Monday on a 154,000 mile 406 which failed to start.
Arrowed, in red, is the pump itself contained within a plastic swirl pot; arrowed in black is the fuel gauge float arm, simple in operation.

Did somebody ask how a fuel gauge works back along? Well, there you have it.
Also, I have included two pics of the net result of a low speed cambelt failure on a Peugeot 205 Diesel - merely a broken can bearing. A 2nd hand cam cap was fitted and all was well for evermore!
