Is the Classic Car Parts world going down the pan?

Whomever is listing items for Moss Rimmer since their merger needs to get some lessons in Classic Parts....
Since when did Stromberg make Fuel Pumps??
Burlen now own SU and Stromberg brands but heavens knows which SU pump this fits.
I don't believe Stromberg UK ever made anything other than Carburettors.

The Burlen/SU shop website lists the WZX 1710, but doesn't detail which pump(s) it is for.
If you generically just search for pump diaphragms, it doesn't give the WZX 1710 in the results.
It's getting bad enough finding parts, but these suppliers/manufacturers need to improve their performance.
The Moss Europe website lists it, but I'm not convinced by it's appearance and the listing details. The image they have appears to show a post '85 diaphragm:
