Ditto Rob's comment.  I was a boat repair guy for 15 years.  If the issue
is in the pump assembly, replace the entire pump assembly!  The assembly is
usually only a few bucks more than the rebuild kit.  It was ALWAYS cheaper
for my clients.  However, several still wanted me to put in a repair kit.

Do the math.  0.5 hours for me to change a pump assembly.  1.0-1.5 hours to
remove pump assembly, install rebuild kit, re-install rebuilt pump assembly.

Then there's the possibility that the pump cylinder is scored, the
non-replaceable valve sealing surfaces are scratched or gouged or some
other issue with the thing that may cause the rebuild to fail.
