Testing Fuel Pump 200 1980

Good morning.
I believe I have a bad fuel pump in my 1980 244DL, but would like some reassurance since it is not a cheap part.
After skipping a little for a couple days, the engine died completely.
I can start it using starter fluid but it won't run.
I checked for power to the external pump while trying to start the car and there was power. I also connected a battery directly to the pump to see if the pump would run. I couldn't hear or feel anything. I assume it is dead. Is this a correct assumption?
Also, after looking online for parts, it appears that there are different pumps for the Lambda-sond and LH Jetronic fuel systems. How do I know which I have. I can't find anything to help in the manual.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
