The 12JA is an early JG... Most if not all the parts from a JC or a JG will work...

Pump looks and feels ok. The saying ( if it's not broke, don't fix it) would that apply??  The boat was last tagged in 2003.

Since there is no motor in front of it, pull it, throw a thrust bearing in it, new grease seals, new packing, inspect it for excessive wear and throw it back in. The half a day now can easily turn into a couple of days once she runs.

It ain't broke because it hasn't been asked to do anything...   ;)
