In case the pump is discovered to be defective, it should be replaced because it cannot be repaired. Wipe the contact faces and reconnect the pump with a new O-ring and sealing flange and be sure to get the lever in place on top of the camshaft eccentric. Lastly, screw and screw the mounting bolts to the required torque.
