raw water pump wobbling and leaking

[PeteyDaMan]

I replaced the impeller in my raw water pump yesterday. The new impeller went in fine. I'm noticing now that the pump is wobbling a bit and has a slow drip from the weep hole at the bottom of them pump. It's on a 5.0 Gxi. I'm guessing the pump is shot and i'm going to have to fork over another $325 to the parts guy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That's about it. Volvo doesn't even list parts for that pump.

Any tips on replacing the pump? I've read in a few places that it attaches to the harmonic balancer with a few allen head bolts. Other than that and taking off the belt any other pitfalls I should might encounter?
