Fuel pump for 02 Firebird?

Is there an acdelco fuel pump i can use on my 2002 3.8 firebird.
I know advanced auto parts lists the EP381, EP386, and EP378.
My uncle took a look at the EP378 and he said it didn't have a connection
for the little black hose that goes in the bucket... I don't feel like buying the whole assembly... does the walbro have a connection for this black hose or do i have to do some modifications.... if i do have to make modifications for the walbro, is there an acdelco that will work with some modifications like the walbro??????

Yes, The Walbro fuel pumps sold by the vendors on this board are direct replacement for the ACDelco. Support the vendors who support these forums.

I just used a stock 01 LS1 fuel pump+bucket assembly+sending unit in my '99 3.8L Firebird and it worked the same as normal. As a bonus, when I did an LS1 swap I didn't have to swap fuel pumps. You can also buy used fuel pumps here on LS1tech in the classifieds section.
