Surprised you have to yank the tank to get the pump out. The 928 has 2 fuel pumps, one in and one out, no tank yanking needed to replace them, or more commonly replace the short fuel line between them.
The factory location for the fuel pump was a mechanical pump mounted to the engine for the carb. That went away long long ago. I bought the factory setup for the 6 cylinder El Camino. They came with the same basic fuel injection throttle body that I have on my 350. The fuel pump setup from the factory was in the tank for the pump. The pump lowers into the top of the fuel tank. Without cutting a hole into the bed the only way to get to it is drop the tank down.

The lift will make it much easier to fix for sure.
