Stumped - under my rear seat!!

I have the fuel leak and have been looking for a picture of what I see under the right (passenger side) access hole under the rear seat but I haven't come across it yet. Maybe you guys can tell me. It's a single wiring connection on what might be the fuel level sender?? Not sure!! I've searched for parts online but what I've seen doesn't look like what I have there. No hoses present that I can see. Just the lock ring, the white piece and the wire plug type connection. I'm looking for a part number and haven't had any luck, even consulted epcnet which the diagram is terrible...

passenger side is the fuel pump and sends fuel over to driver side (fuel sending unit and filter) internally.. It is best to replace both at the same time. it looks as if you pumps are getting hot and melting the plug.

you want parts #13 and #14

Groove, do you know the correct MB part number for the updated pump? I'll probably go ahead and swap it out.
Do you know much about the Airtex version as opposed to the OEM that has caused so much problems?
