The stock location for the fuel pump is: as you face the engine, your lower left. It is on the passenger side front of the block just behind the edge where the timing cover plate bolts up to the block. But, I would first check for fuel delivery and spark delivery. You may have a clogged fuel filter or, if the engine hasn't been run in a while, just bad fuel in the tank. The fuel filter should be in either of two places or both. The first place is between the fuel filter and the fuel inlet on the carburetor, especially if there is a rubber fuel line you might find one. The second place could be in a housing on the fuel inlet of the carburetor, some models of Rochester had a porous bronze insert inside the housing. Be careful with this though, if the engine has a stainless fuel supply line you can twist/crimp the line when you try to remove the line to get the housing off. Use care and if you have them use line wrenches. If you do disconnect the fuel line to inspect or r/r the filter, then is when you can check for fuel pump operation by using a large coffee can, some rubber hose attached to the fuel line to allow you to aim the expected flow of fuel into the can. Disconnect the Coil wire from the distributor cap first. Wear eye protection. Have an assistant turn the engine over and look for a solid stream of fuel as delivered by the pump. Sort of a rambling post but hope this helps.
I looked for an image of the pump, this is the best I could find. Ignore all the fancy braided fuel line and the chrome pump, all aftermarket stuff. But notice the pump location.
