Aerotec 380 pump repair kit?

Back in the SIB world after a few years away sailing, chartering and flotilla holidays

Just picked up a Aerotec , 2002 with a 25 hp Yamaha and trailer . SIB looks like it had been left on the trailer for a few years and had picked up a few faults as a result. The seams all seem fine apart from the fuel tank holding points that have partly come away.

The pump however had been left in the SIB submerged in water and its picked some issues up, holes in the bellows , outer and the middle ones, the high pressure one seems ok. I have glued the holes but it could really do with new bellows, has anyone gone down this route and if so where did they get them from, Google seems to have no answers.

In truth a new foot pump would not be that costly... and a 12v one even better!

Will use my kayak pump for now, I have a low pressure 12v that can fill 90% of it , just the higher pressure bit to top off with the hand pump.
