My fuel pump has a small crack at the fuel line inlet and has a drip. Any rigs that I might could do to make it through the weekend?

bypass the pump, plumb in a temporary electric fuel pump -

dry it up real good and get some a-b epoxy in a squirt tube...

marine tex ..... cures faster, (10 min), has more body (thicker) to the material. Kinda scary with a gas line, whatever kind of goop.

all good temp fixes. you can even get quick drying J-B Weld, Just be sure to clean the area with carb or brake cleaner so your patch sticks good....

JB weld did it. Ended up being able to take my boat out for the 1st time since the engine went in. Good call.

What could be more permanent than a temporary fix?
I would get a new pump over niight.
