Wes is me, if it’s leaking from the nose cone you’re likely due for a reseal. That’s not a common place to leak so if that seal has deteriorated more are sure to follow. You can go on ClassicDieselDesigns.com and look at my pricing on rebuilds.

$850, I don’t do reseals. I rebuild the pump properly and do the reliability upgrades I outlined on that page so that the pump will hold up to our modern diesel that these pumps were never engineered for.
If the old one ran so well, just leaked a bit, I'd be tempted to just put it back on, and try to return the one from autozone.
If the 'new' one is running so badly, it is possible that you are wasting more fuel just driving down the road, than you were losing to the leak.
What did you do to try to fix the leak, before you decided to replace the IP?
Have you tried just putting a wrench on the nose of that part, and tightening it down a bit?Yea good point my only issue with that was the fuel would run down the back of the motor to the bell housing and possibly pulling some into my clutch etc (ZF5)

You'll want to loosen the inlet fitting first. Don't remove it, just loosen a bit.
Then tighten the nose, then the fitting.
