I'm after the bits and brackets etc from the fuel pump area, like the image below, though I probably could build one from scratch, if I do can anyone tell me what the little thing is just after the fuel pump? Is it a fuel pressure regulator or something?

Its a diaphragm, it's not needed, so don't worry about it.

Believe it's to try stop fuel surges etc, but when i took a pump off and Astra mk2 gte i asked about it, everyone said bin it, its another restriction and point of possible leaking..

I've got a pump cradle on its rubber mountings.

The threaded inserts for the chassis leg to mount it can be had cheap from Vauxhall.
