Either or, it's entirely up to you.
Although I think the OEM TR6060 with the remote shifter..I've heard of guys easily hooking up a BMW linkage to these and in general the 6060 is the better gearbox. So would make more sense to go for that.

The castings in the body are there on a Magnum to allow fitment ( probably needs machining ? ), does that mean all such boxes do actually have the pump ?
I see some sellers touting it as a cost extra, so presume it's not standard ?
Wish I'd taken the front cover off mine to check

i did not personally have it apart, but Texas druvetrain did when he did the magnum conversion. He said that pump is a failure point on those transmissions. Mine was deleted with the conversion because of the new front plate
