Update

Turns out the slip on joiner from the pump to the metal hard line inside the tank had deteriated enough so the pump was picking up fuel but spraying it back into the tank
Some 5/16 line and two hose clamps fixed it right up
Starts up just fine now, bit of noise in the engine bay but that’s just an oil change away from being sorted out
I presume you mean the pulsation damper. Yeah they do age. Another symptom of them failing: you will probably find then that the fuel drains out of the fuel rail when you park on a hill with nose up, then engine will not start unless you prime the pump a few times.
