Speedway sells one also, allows you to use the GM pump with the MII rack.
I think I'd swap in a rebuilt pump if I was going to go after the big O-ring.

I agree on the relief valve.
As far as resealing, these pumps are pretty easy an and the kit is cheap. I usually remove the front seal by punching a small hole in it and threading a small screw to give me something to grip.
As far as the can, remove the bolts and pressure fitting grip the snout of the pump in a vice and wiggle the can off (if it doesn't come easily you might need to gently tap around the front lip with a small hammer.
Besides the big O ring on the can there are also O rings where the bolts and pressure fitting go. Lube everything up with ATF/PS fluid and reassemble.
.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....

Thanks for the inputs !!!!
I had to go to the doctor's this morning. He told me that my sugar was too high so I came home and put it on a lower shelf. I feel better already.
