When you say new style pump ... ?There are numerous posts on the net regarding Melling's lightening of M55 pump castings and their subsequent recommendation to use a Melling Select Perf. pump with a number something like #10550 and 10551. Is this possibly related to your pump failure?
I have used solid mounts forever along with a Fluidampr on a 454 and never had a oil pump issue.
