2006 ML500 Delphi or Mercedes fuel pump?

2006 ML 500 mercedes fuel pump is back order for 2 weeks out. Napa have Delphi fuel pump in stock lifetime warranty. Does anyone have any experience with Delphi fuel pump? I really want the original but 2 weeks of down time is a lot. Should I go for Delphi? I need your input on this please
