Could this 'shrapnel' be causing my problem?

When I bought my '90 200tqw in May, the fuel pump was noisy.  I replaced
it, along with the fuel filter.  In July, it got noisy *again*.  I replaced
it again, along with the fuel filter.  Now it's noisy *again again*.
ARRGHHH!!!

Other than replacing the d**n thing again, anybody have any
ideas?................SLM
