Couple of options...
1. Rebuild kit from http://www.then-now.com/
2. Replacement pump from Autozone withOUT the vacuum unit...so you would have to do something about the wipers like go to electric...part number is 6510...last I checked it was $27.99.
3. You can modify a cheap small block mopar pump to do the same as the stock pump withOUT the vacuum unit...heres how:

You can try the mil surplus guys...not sure that they have any...wouldnt pay for an NOS one and think it would work...if you can find one even. I would bet it would need rebuilt quickly.

Thank you for the reply and options. I'm going to order the rebuild kit unless somebody thinks one of the other options is a better avenue of repair.

Update:
I got the Autozone replacement pump.
When I removed the original pump I found the spring had broken. I discovered a couple of pieces stuck to the pump and in the block cavity, but where did the rest go/end up and what trouble could it have caused?

I think it would be stuck in the bottom of the timing cover...unless it could snake through the little drain to the oil pan...
I'm moving this to the Stock forum. Useful for rebuild kit info and wiper pump alternative as well as the lost parts tech!
Be sure to tell us where the missing parts turn up, Krek!
