Ok. I think I've isolated the area where the leak is coming from. It's either coming from the brass looking circle on the fuel pump or the little slot holes that go all around the pump. It's a brand new fuel pump but could it be bad too?

Yes it is possible. I have a batch of Oregon pumps to fail short after install last year and Rotary pull all theirs last year as they were failing too. Even a new batch they got in last year as replacement for a batch got earlier failed their in house testing too. Left me having to buy OEM pumps. So far this year Oregon pumps seems to be okay.

A brand new fuel pump can certainly be bad. OEM may cost a little more but it’s a better bet than many aftermarket pumps.
