Fuel Pump is on a rubber mounted tray? Separate to fuel tank.

Remove the cover with the two holes in and you'll find the fuel pump. (You can see the fuel filter thru the holes).

Good to hear this is still progressing Corey.
As has been said, getting to the fuel pump is dead easy.
Before you take that step, I assume you have you checked the electrics first to confirm a dead pump?
There is a 20A fuse to check under the dash that feeds the ignition and pump.
If the fuse is OK, you might want to see if there is power getting to the pump. Under the rear seat, passenger side, you'll find two pin connector feeding power to the pump. Break the connector and check with a multimeter. With ignition on, you should get 12 volts there.
When the pump is working, it makes an audible ticking, which can be easily heard in the cockpit with the ignition on, so you'll know if it's operating.
If power is OK and no sound, then it's likely the pump.
Apologies if you've already done the above steps
