The power wire might be shorting out and blowing the fuse.
there are three types of people in the world , those who can count and those who can't
How about unplugging the pump and metering it.. (the cabling)

most likely there would be a cut between the pump and the relay/fuse and its touching metal and shorting out. A bad relay would just make the pump not work at all wont cause the fuse to blow. does it blow as soon as u turn ign on or is it after a while?

or the pumps dieing and drawing too much current

there might be other things wired to the same circuit that could be blowing the fuse
Check the wiring at the oil pressure switch plug and switch itself at the front of the motor, it can short out and cause problems, like oil fires or blown fuses.
A faulty oil pressure switch will cause the fuel pump fuse to blow. Its a common problen
