I'm getting ready to order some parts for my 1.6TD hydraulic full rebuild. 
The oil pump leaves me a bit mystified. There are a bunch of part #s listed, 
with widely varying prices from $37 for a Brazilian pump at busdepot.com, 
to well over $100 for OEM. 068115105AN is listed as the original 
replacement pump, but there seem to be several variants on this part #. 
Clearly I need the larger 36mm gears (stock on all hydraulic TDs I believe), 
but I understand all replacements pumps use the larger gears now, or so 
I've heard. Is there an even larger pump size for more flow?

I'd like a good quality pump, prefer German, but don't want to pay
