Thanks for your input guys!
So I ordered a new pump, though I do not know so far what is wrong. But I would like to drive the truck on 8th of july, so I did a wild guess. So let´s hope it comes out right.
The tool has arrived and I did a short test on the vacuum
from the pump coming. There was pretty much nothing to read. I could
feel the pump sucking - but we know
that is not accurate.
I was really not sure if I did not use it correctly, so I tried something different:
Connected the tool to the brake booster and pumped until roughly 12 unit...

So even with the lines just stuck in each other I was able to suck a vacuum of 12.
After that I started the engine to see if brake light turned off and the booster is working.
For just 1 press of the pedal the brake felt normal. After that not a second time. The read out was 0 vacuum - as expected after the 1rst push of the pedal.
So for me it looks like the booster is working but does not have enough vacuum. Probably bad pump, maybe leaks...
btw pumping with that thing took minutes!
Brake light was still on but vacuum was just roughly 12 and should be more like 17-21, so hopefully the light turns off when I have more vacuum than that.
Pump should arrive on 1rth, let´s see ...
PS: One can see the Vacuum on the top of the engine. I once, some years ago, fittes the plastic cover from the rain rail, in the middle.
Because: Rain falls directly onto and into it. When I noticed the pump (probably) did not work, I sprayed WD40 into it and we can see it came out rusty.
Though not sure if this was a good idea.
But if it is gone it is anyway. The rain guard came on roughly 4 years after I had the new pump in, in 2014.
