Howard Prout has a good spare, and I had never seen one before my visit to his house in Canada. I don't think this part can be purchased any more. Howard said Cadillac is the only other car he knows of that also used a oil/vacuum pump.
Here is the 430 original pump:
#1
Howard fabricated the top flange and tube piece so he could run the pump in a bucket of oil.
#2
The flared pipe (on the right) pulls vacuum in, and the short vertical pipe exhausts air above the oil level inside the pan.
#3
Here is the oil pickup and vacuum tube.

I was surprised to see, "AC" on the bottom of the pump. This isn't the first part I have seen Ford purchase from GM. BTW, do you know that AC stands for Albert Champion? Yep, same guy. - Dave
